Description and Table of Contents

Description

This illustrated edition of Lytton Strachey's biography of Queen Victoria has been published to coincide with the 150th anniversary of her accession to the throne. The author shows obvious admiration and affection for Queen Victoria and this together with the use of archive material, in particular from the Royal archives at Windsor, helps to evoke the atmosphere of the period. The illustrations include advertisements, ephemera, drawings and watercolours - some by Queen Victoria herself.
