In 2021, the Queen Elizabeth II finally appears to be at ease in the modern world, helped by the new generation of Windsors. But through Irving's unique insight there emerges a more fragile institution, whose extraordinarily dutiful matriarch has managed to persevere with dignity, yet in doing so made a Faustian pact with the media. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Last Queen\u003c\/i\u003e is not a conventional biography--and the book is therefore not limited by the traditions of that genre. Instead, it follows Elizabeth and her family's struggle to survive in the face of unprecedented changes in our attitudes towards the royal family, with the critical eye of an investigative reporter who is present and involved on a highly personal level.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clive Irving\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1643136143\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781643136141\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pegasus Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/05\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/26\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2020 pg. 16\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2021 pg. 76","brand":"Clive Irving","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44049493459199,"sku":"9781643136141","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_90e8c8f4-9481-4710-9c78-d7418cd7bd5a.jpg?v=1685001816","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-last-queen-clive-irving-9781643136141","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
