Victoria : Portrait of a Queen by Catherine Reef (2017, Hardcover)

Description: Great look at this famous British monarch in Victoria; PORTRAIT OF A QUEEN. This 246 page over sized hardcover by Catherine Reef was published in 2017. From the DJ we read, "Princess Victoria woke one morning in June 1837 to discover that her uncle had died and she was now queen. She was just eighteen years old, but she accepted her new duties with gusto, going on to reign for sixty-three years. Her influence as so far-reaching that her decades on the British throne came to bear her name-the Victorian period. It was an era that witnessed enormous change, from evolving social rules to the advent of industrialization, from the introduction of the theory of evolution to the vast expansion of the British Empire. Many people questioned their beliefs and way of live. Victoria's days inside castle walls were also extraordinary, filled with intrigue and drama, rumor and innuendo-not to mention questionable consorts, scheming advisers, assassination attempts, and a great love. Catherine Reef once again brings history vividly to life in this sumptuously illustrated and sweeping account of Queen Victoria, a confident, strong-minded, and influential woman."
