Queen Victoria: Twenty-four Days That Changed Her Life by Lucy Worsley, B Victoria (2019)

 

Queen Victoria might be missing from the PBS schedule, but you can find her on the library shelves.  Drawing from Victoria’s own correspondence and other documentation of her life, Lisa Worley (Curator of the Historic Royal Palaces) recreates the 24 days in Victoria’s life that defined Victoria as a daughter, mother, widow, and sovereign.  I had a whole different impression of Victoria after reading it.
