Résumé
Drawing on her private correspondence and other unpublished material from the Royal Archives, William Shawcross reveals the witty girl who endeared herself to soldiers convalescing at Glamis in the First World War; the assured young Duchess of York; the Queen,… at last feeling able to look the East End in the face at the height of the Blitz; the Queen Mother, representing the nation at home and abroad throughout her widowhood. It is the portrait of a remarkable woman. 2009.
