Over the next fifty years he met her many times  both at public and at private events. Through
his friendship with the Duke of Edinburgh  he was given privileged access to Elizabeth II.  He
kept a record of all those encounters  and his conversations with the Queen over the years  his
meetings with her family and friends  and his observations of her at close quarters are what
make this very personal account of her extraordinary life uniquely fascinating.   From her
childhood in the 1920s to the era of Harry and Meghan in the 2020s  from her war years at
Windsor Castle to her death at Balmoral  this is both a record of a tumultuous century of royal
history and a truly intimate portrait of a remarkable woman.  __________   Praise for Gyles
