A delightful biographical study of Her Majesty the Queen's friends and family. Perfect for readers of Hugo Vickers, James Pope-Hennessey, Philp Ziegler and Christopher Warwick. Written in Her Majesty's Silver Jubilee year, here is the innermost story of Queen Elizabeth II amid her closest personal friends and working colleagues. Doyenne of royal writers, Helen Cathcart takes the reader on a unique journey from infancy up to the third decade of Her Majesty's reign, highlighting the Queen's influence upon her friends and Household, and their reciprocal influence upon the Sovereign. Along the way we meet the royal relatives, intimate acquaintances and trusted officials who have supported and guided Her Majesty from early childhood through to heiress presumptive to the throne and ultimately as reigning monarch. With in-depth profiles of the men and women around the Queen, the author has achieved a book of compelling interest - a royal biography in terms of people and events but, above all, people. Praise for Helen Cathcart: 'Wide acclaim as a royal biographer ... objective, uninhibited and penetrating' - Sunday Express 'Helen Cathcart writes about royalty as if she were one of them' - The Daily Mail 'The doyenne of royal biographers' - The Daily Telegraph 'A tireless chronicler of royalty' - The Guardian
