The official biography of Queen Mary, grandmother of the current
Queen, originally commissioned in 1959 - with a new foreword by
Hugo Vickers. When Queen Mary died in 1953, James Pope-Hennessy was
commissioned to write an official biography of her - unusual for a
Queen Consort. Queen Mary's life, contrary to popular belief, was
essentially dramatic, and she played a far more important and
influential role in the affairs of the British monarchy than her
public image might have otherwise suggested. Using material from
the Royal Archives, private papers and Queen Mary's personal
diaries and letters, Pope-Hennessy's biography was a remarkable
portrait of a remarkable woman and received rave reviews across the
press. Long out of print, this new edition of Queen Mary will be
accompanied by a new foreword from royal biographer and writer Hugo
Vickers.
