Her Little Majesty: The Life of Queen Victoria

A fresh biography of the resolute, diminutive queen who emerged as the defining symbol of her age while the forces of social, economic, and religious changes swirled about her. The queen's extraordinary life and reign stand out against a backdrop of Victorian-era squalor, vice-ridden slums, and tragic miscalculations--all brought together in an historical narrative that reads like a lively fiction. B&W photos & illustrations.
