by Andrew, Morton is the first comprehensive biography of the late British monarch since her death in September 2022, written by the man most famous for chronicling the life of Princess Diana in the early 1990s. The book chronicles the Queen’s childhood, which was forever altered by the abdication of her uncle, Edward VIII when she became heir to the throne. Since her coronation in 1952, the Queen presided over more than half a century of British life and international events, while remaining enigmatic and deeply private. Morton has written a biography of the Queen’s public-facing life and offers a portrait of the institution of the monarchy itself. (Non-Fiction)
