Description:In this outstanding biography, Monica Charlot reveals the loving, compassionate, and energetic nature of a sovereign whose name has been unjustly associated with the repressive moral fervour distinctive of her age. Victoria was as ardent and loyal in her affection for family and friends as she was wholly committed to her country at a time of great economic, social, and political change.With the benefit of unrivalled access to Victoria's private journals and correspondence, Monica Charlot is able to describe the young Queen's feelings at times of domestic and political crisis. She provides, for example, the most vivid and intimate account ever published of Victoria's loving but nevertheless troubled relationship with Prince Albert, her strict and authoritarian husband.In this, the first part of her life and reign, the Queen emerges as a woman of integrity and resilience, whose strength of purpose and political account is matched by a natural warmth, tolerance, and passion that Albert's sober influence could never overcome.First published in France in 1989 to wide critical acclaim, the English edition has been prepared and revised by the author herself.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
