Book
Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Reprint. This book is the warmly human, fondly anecdotal story of those two couples who are one and the same; the story of twenty years of monarchy and twenty-five years of marriage. It traces their love story from that first boy and girl meeting in the pre-war summer of 1939 when Princess Elizabeth was a leggy 13-year old and Philip a rather cocky 18-year-old naval cadet; it deals with the problems which arose when they wanted to marry, and it tells of the halycon days of early marriage and the more acute problems which pressed upon them when the Queen came to the Throne at the age of 25. It shows how these problems were resolved, and introduces the children of the marraige - the young man who will one day be King, his sometimes temperamental sister, and the two children of the second family who came late on the scene. Illustrated. Slight foxing to inside page. Page clipped to inside page. Slight shelf wear to top edg of D/J.
