ELIZABETH, THE WOMAN AND THE QUEEN, In this intimate biography of Queen Elizabeth II, Graham Turner had access to the Royal Family and their inner circle for almost a decade before creating this book, and he aims to show the flesh-and-blood woman.
Graham Turner takes us behind the scenes to describe the sometimes raw reality of her relationship with Prince Philip and the influence of the Queen Mother. He analyses how she deals with her own children and asks how good a mother she has been and if she has successfully juggled family and work. Turner also gives rare glimpses behind the formality, showing the Queen on holiday at Sandringham and Balmoral, and where she might serve dinner and clear the table.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: After gaining a first class degree at Oxford, Graham Turner worked for The Scotsman and The Sunday Times. He then became nationally recognised as the BBC's first Economics Correspondent. Thereafter he worked for the Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph as a features writer.
