Following her death in September 2022, the outpouring of affection
and admiration for the Queen was as touching as it was remarkable.
She had been a matriarch to the nation for over seven decades, and
tens of millions of people - in Britain and across the world -
poured forth their heartfelt respect for this extraordinary woman
in the ten days of mourning that followed. Including a queue of up
to twenty-four hours' wait, momentous ceremonial processions across
two countries and emotional coffin-side vigils from the monarch's
closest family members - these were events the scale of which are
unlikely to be repeated. In this insightful biography, veteran
royal biographer Andrew Morton charts Elizabeth's life, from her
ascent to the throne at twenty-five, through fifteen Prime
Ministers; the turmoil and tragedies of family life that dogged her
until the end; a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic, during which she
became the reassuring face of hope and optimism, solidifying her
status as grandmother to the nation; and on to her record-breaking
Platinum Jubilee, the first UK monarch to reign for over seventy
years. Now updated with a compelling new epilogue bringing the
Queen's story to its close, this definitive account offers
revelatory insights into the life of an inimitable woman, the likes
of whom we will never see again.
