"A wonderfully fresh, vivid and engaging portrait." ― Jane Ridley, author of Bertie: A Life of Edward VII

"an insightful, sympathetic, and vividly written examination of the 'good woman' who ruled England for 64 years....Worsley’s command of the material and elegant writing style make this a must-read for anyone interested in the British monarchy."―Publisher's Weekly
