Download Royal Sisters: Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret AudioBook Free
In Royal Sisters, Anne Edwards, author of the best-selling Vivien Leigh: A Biography and Matriarch: Queen Mary and the House of Windsor, has written the first dual biography of Elizabeth, the princess who was simply to become Queen, and her more radiant sister, Margaret, who was simply to be her subject. From delivery to maturity, they were the stuff which dreams are created. "I'm three and you're four," the near future Queen, then a child, imperiously prepared her sister. Younger young lady, not understanding this reference to their position in the succession, happily countered, "No, you are not. I'm three, you're seven." The royal sisters experienced no choice in their historical positions, but behind the palace gates and within the all-too-human confines of their personalities, they displayed tremendous personality and suffered the most common symptoms of sibling rivalry. Royal Sisters has an unprecedented and intimate portrait of the most well-known siblings during their formative and remarkable youthful years. It is also one of the 20th century's most attractive experiences of sisterly devotion.
