Summary |
"For 70 years, Queen Elizabeth II showed an unwavering commitment to her country, and she will be remembered as not only Britain's most beloved and longest-reigning monarch, but as a symbol of pride and inspiration everywhere. This book reflects on Elizabeth's remarkable story, and looks at her years as princess, her war-time service, her Coronation, and her role as Queen both at home and across the world."-- Provided by publisher. |
