Power and glory : Elizabeth II and the rebirth of royalty

Larman, Alexander, 1981-2024
Book
'Power and Glory' brings us to the dramatic conclusion of Larman's trilogy. It begins with the fallout from the revelation of the Duke of Windsor's wartime treachery, and ends with the Coronation of Elizabeth II on the 2nd of June 1953. In between, it depicts a monarchy - and a country - struggling to cope with the aftermath of World War Two, in an era where old certainties have been replaced by the rise of a new, uncertain world, and where love, tragedy and modernity battle for supremacy.
