The Queen and Prince Philip by Helen Cathcart PDF Summary

Book Description: A brilliantly intimate portrait of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh during their courtship and early years of married life together. A celebration of the love story between Britain's longest reigning monarch and her royal consort, perfect for readers of Ingrid Seward, Andrew Morton and Andrew Lownie. 'If I am asked today what I think about family life after 25 years of marriage, I can reply with simplicity and conviction. I am for it.' - The Queen, 20th November 1972 Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip enjoyed seventy-three years of happy married life together - the longest marriage of any royal British couple in history. But how did they meet? What did their families think of their burgeoning relationship? What obstacles did the young couple face before and after their marriage? And how did a childhood friendship grow into the love story of the century? In The Queen and Prince Philip royal biographer Helen Cathcart superbly reconstructs the early years of Elizabeth and Philip's relationship, tracing their growing affection from the summer of 1939, when 'Lilibet' was a teenager and Philip a dashing navy cadet, through their wartime courtship and magnificent wedding in 1947 at Westminster Abbey. She skilfully narrates their adjustment to new parenthood in Clarence House and how, shortly afterwards, both their lives changed forever when Elizabeth ascended the throne as Queen in 1952 and Philip became Prince Consort. Set against a revealing background of family and wider social events, this is the first full story of their early years together as husband and wife documented from family letters, royal journals and the personal recollections of those close to the royal couple. The Queen and Prince Philip takes us behind the scenes of one of the most romantic royal love stories of all time. 'Helen Cathcart writes about royalty as if she were one of them' - The Daily Mail 'Compulsive and absorbing' - The Daily Telegraph 'A tireless chronicler of royalty' - The Guardian
