We see the teenage Lilibet repairing army trucks during World War II and standing with Winston Churchill on the balcony of Buckingham Palace on VE Day.

Sally Bedell Smith brings us inside the palace doors and into the Queens daily routinesthe red boxes of documents she reviews each day, the weekly meetings she has had with twelve prime ministers, her physically demanding tours abroad, and the constant scrutiny of the pressas well as her personal relationships: with Prince Philip, her husband of sixtyfour years and the love of her life; her children and their oftendisastrous marriages; her grandchildren and friends.Compulsively readable and scrupulously researched, Elizabeth the Queen is a closeup view of a woman weve known only from a distance, illuminating the lively personality, sense of humor, and canny intelligence with which she meets the most demanding work and family obligations. It is also a fascinating window into life at the center of the last great monarchy.
