Synopsis
The classic bigraphy of Queen Victoria, reissued in advance of the centenary of her death. Lady Longford regards her with undisguised affection and respect - respect for the iron sense of duty which impelled the secluded widow to emerge at last and rule her empire as a mother, her family as a Queen.

Review
It is hard to imagine how Lady Longford's detailed & vivid volume could have been bettered,.scholarly yet racily readable, witty yet wise (ST)
gives us more than the general reader has ever had, revealing the Queen as a character at once simple & complex, humble & authoritarian (Daily Telegraph)
So sanely & attractively written with each episode blending so easily into the next that the reader is soon carried along in fascination (Financial Times)
(Victoria) has in Lady L. her fullest & best-Informed, most sensible & sympathetic biographer (TIMES)
