ISBN: 9781250201423.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story of the queen who defied convention and defined an era\n\nA passionate princess, an astute and clever queen, and a cunning widow, Victoria played many roles throughout her life. In Queen Victoria: Twenty-Four Days That Changed Her Life, Lucy Worsley introduces her as a woman leading a truly extraordinary life in a unique time period. Queen Victoria simultaneously managed to define a socially conservative vision of Victorian womanhood, while also defying its conventions. Beneath her exterior image of traditional daughter, wife, and widow, she was a strong-willed and masterful politician.\n\nDrawing from the vast collection of Victoria’s correspondence and the rich documentation of her life, Worsley recreates twenty-four of the most important days in Victorias life. Each day gives a glimpse into the identity of this powerful, difficult queen and the contradictions that defined her. Queen Victoria is an intimate introduction to one of Britain’s most iconic rulers as a wife and widow, mother and matriarch, and above all, a woman of her time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"St. Martin's Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45119010799669,"sku":"ByrdShop_125020142X","price":30.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781250201423_87f515e7-3ce3-4231-8f62-a90c46c3c9fd.jpg?v=1781381048","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/queen-victoria-twentyfour-days-that-changed-her-life-9781250201423","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
