This nine-volume selection from the letters of Queen Victoria, with
ancillary material, was commissioned by her son, Edward VII, and
published between 1907 and 1932, with a gap of almost twenty years
between the third and fourth volumes. The editor of the 'Second
Series', which covers the years from 1862 to 1885, was George Earle
Buckle (1854-1935), a historian and former editor of The Times, who
continued the editorial policy of his predecessors, but who needed
to tread carefully, as many of the people mentioned in documents of
the second part of Queen Victoria's reign were still alive when
Volumes 4-6 were published between 1926 and 1928. Volume 4, dealing
with 1862-9, begins with the period of mourning after Prince
Albert's death, and includes the marriage of the Prince of Wales,
and the death of the Queen's uncle and mentor, Leopold I of
Belgium.
