Churchill's Queen

Nigel Fletcher

£25.00


Here is a revelatory exploration of the remarkable relationship between Queen Elizabeth II and Winston Churchill, two of Britain's greatest leaders. In February 1952, when the young Elizabeth returned to London after her sudden accession to the throne, it was Churchill who was first to greet her as she stepped off the aircraft. The image was a striking one - an elderly statesman in the twilight of his career paying homage to a young sovereign just embarking on what would become the longest reign in the history of the British monarchy. He already had a lifetime of experience to share, while she had a lifetime of service still to come. Using previously unpublished material from government files and private archives, this book sheds new light on this historic relationship, revealing how their fruitful collaboration shaped the monarchy and the nation.
