'Enchanting, often moving and sometimes hilarious' Daily Mail Full of wit, hilarity, acute observation and a deeply held sense of duty, the Queen Mother's letters give readers a vivid insight into the person behind the public face. Here, in her own words, is the much-loved little girl writing teasing letters to her many siblings and friends; here, too, is the young woman who, after a long courtship and two refusals, accepted the Duke of York's proposal. 'The warm personality and humour of the late, much-loved Queen Mother shines through in her letters, as does her affection for all, whether below or above stairs' Scotsman 'Recaptures her effervescent charm, and the simple fact that she was a good egg' Spectator 'How one warms to her!' Evening Standard
