Her Little Majesty is a brand new and fascinating family portrait of the diminutive monarch who ruled the huge English empire for over 60 years. Award-winning biographer and historian, Carolly Erickson, transports you behind the wall space of Buckingham Palace to introduce you to the quirky, loveable Queen Victoria-revealed and then her closest affiliates. Emotionally deprived, inadequately informed, and socially isolated for a lot of her life, young Victoria thought ill-prepared to ascend the throne. However the 19-year-old queen fulfilled her coronation day with outward dignity and confidence-then gone home to bathe her pet dog. Even though her consistent temper tantrums and neurotic obsessions could have critics repeatedly fearing on her behalf sanity, she became a powerful ruler, relentlessly leading her country through damaging wars and sweeping political reform. Carolly Erickson draws on diaries, words, and historical documents to pen this remarkable bill of England's popular matriarch and the turbulent era that bears her name. Narrator Nelson Runger will keep you enthralled as the glory and the adversities of the Victorian era unfold.
