Victoria & Albert : a royal love affair / by Goodwin, Daisy,author.(CARDINAL)419626; Sheridan, Sara,1968-author.(CARDINAL)353899;
Introduction -- Modern royals -- The never-ending love affair -- The expectant queen -- Raising a royal family -- At home with Victoria & Albert -- Reforming the royal household -- The power couple -- The face of an empire -- A very public life -- Epilogue : a royal legacy.The official companion to the second season of the PBS/Masterpiece drama "Victoria" by award-winning creator and screenwriter Daisy Goodwin. More than 16 million viewers watched the first season of the Masterpiece presentation of "Victoria," created and written by Daisy Goodwin―the highest-rated PBS drama in twenty years, second only to "Downton Abbey." But what happened after the Queen married her handsome prince? Did they live happily ever after, or did their marriage, like so many royal marriages past and present, fizzle into a loveless round of duty? This all-new companion book by Daisy Goodwin and Sara Sheridan transports us to the private world of Victoria and Albert. Though first cousins, they could not have been more different: Victoria was impulsive, emotional, and capricious, Albert cautious, self-controlled, and logical. But together they forged a bond with each other and with their people that would change the world. Drawing on letters and diaries and fresh insights into royal history, this gorgeous book charts the constant ebb and flow of power within the couple’s surprisingly ardent and modern marriage. Sumptuously illustrated and full of rich insider detail, "Victoria & Albert" takes us behind the scenes of the magnificent TV drama, including fascinating, in-depth information on the actors, the props, and the costumes – and bringing an extraordinary royal marriage even more fully to life.

Includes bibliographical references and index.Wolferton splash -- Hyde Park corner -- Windsor -- Act of God -- Smoke and mirrors -- Gelignite -- Scientia potentia est -- Pride and joy -- Assassins -- Gloriana.Elizabeth Mountbatten never expected her father to die so suddenly, so young, leaving her with a throne to fill and a global institution to govern. Crowned at twenty-five, she was already a wife and mother as she began her journey towards becoming a queen. As Britain lifted itself out of the shadow of war, the new monarch faced her own challenges. Her mother doubted her marriage; her uncle-in-exile derided her abilities; her husband resented the sacrifice of his career and family name; and her rebellious sister embarked on a love affair that threatened the centuries-old links between the Church and the Crown. This is the story of how Elizabeth II drew on every ounce of resolve to ensure that the Crown always came out on top. Written by the show's historical consultant, royal biographer Robert Lacey, and filled with beautifully reproduced archival photos and show stills, The Crown: The Official Companion: Volume 1 adds expert and in-depth detail to the events of the series, painting an intimate portrait of life inside Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street. Here is Elizabeth II as we've never seen her before.
