The young Princess Victoria, strictly confined within the boundaries of Kensington Palace, is being moulded for her awesome future as Queen of England. Surrounded by her dolls and closely guarded by her domineering mother and faithful governess, she slowly becomes aware of the bitter conflicts that surround her. The jealous and scheming Duke of Cumberland is a constant threat to her rightful accession her mothers sinister friend, Sir John Conroy, makes her uneasy and the bickering between her mother and the king seems never-ending.

Growing up is proving difficult for the princess. She longs for her 18th birthday when at last she will be free to rule the nation as she pleases and to re-acquaint herself with the gallant Prince Albert.

Jean Plaidy or her other pen names, Victoria Holt, Philippa Carr etc. is a genius with history. She has written so many books that millions have enjoyed. This book is as great as all of her other books. The intrigue of the courts, the main characters, and the stories become real to your eyes as you read each book of past history in a way that is enjoyable and factual. She was truly a one of a kind. Victoria cames to life as a person not just as a queen.

Amazing

Jean Plaidy does it again. This is amazing riveting book about the early years of Princess Victoria before she ascends the thrown.
