Description
‘We’re two old dears, really, aren’t we, William? But we have had some fun’, Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother (1900-2002) in conversation with her long-serving footman Billy Tallon.
A sparkling collection of 101 anecdotes and quotations celebrating the life of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother (1900-2002). Famed for her quick wit, partiality to a tipple, and wicked sense of humour, this collection of biographical vignettes presents episodes from and encompassing the light and shade of her colourful life. From her father’s fine for not providing her baptismal record on time, to preparations for ‘Operation Tay Bridge’: the book mixes tales of intimate tête-à-têtes and behind-the-scenes glimpses with great events, including the Abdication Crisis, becoming Queen, the Second World War, and her relationships with members of The Royal Family, and life over 50 years of widowhood. Delightful and poignant details abound in an episodic biography, studded with quotations, previously unpublished contributions and illustrated with beautiful photographs.
