About This Item
UK,8vo HB+dw/dj,1st edn.FINE/NFINE.No owner inscrptn, and no price- clip to dw/dj.Slight shelf-wear dw/dj extremities.8vo,263pp,b/w photographs. The British Royal family are the most talked about family in the world. Because of their unique role - they are the longest-surviving functional monarchy in the world today - their responsibilities and duties as ambassadors for Britain expose them to constant public scrutiny,both at home and abroad.They are an intensely close-knit and loyal family who can only relax and be themselves in the company of each other and that small band of relatives - the Queen's "Second Eleven" - and intimates who know and understand the rigorous demands made upon them by the Court Calendar,their own high standards,centuries of tradition,and by our changing society which now puts a sometimes intolerable burden of "accountability" upon them.What are the Royals really like as a family? At the centre is Queen Elizabeth herself,whom the world has come to recognise and value as a woman with a great sense of duty.The author introduces us to the more private side of the Queen's life - preparing picnics at Balmoral, playing games at Windsor,her relations with her devoted staff,with her friends and intimates,and with her husband, Prince Philip.Above all,we are offered a unique insight into the relationships between the Queen and Prince Philip and their four very different children,all of whom have had to come to terms with their hereditary roles.Drawing on her close contact over many years with the family and Royal Household,WHITING,gives a well-informed and personal view of the Windsors.
