This book, a contemporary account from the time, chronicles the life of Queen Victoria (1819 to 1901). She married all nine of her children into the royal houses of Europe, gave her name to an era, ruled over England at a time of great change, survived assassination attempts, became the longest reigning monarch and more. This excellent book is a fascinating read about the woman behind the British Empire.
