    [synopsis] => A definitive portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on the seventieth anniversary of her reign by a renowned royal biographer

Shy but with a steely self-confidence, inscrutable despite ten decades in the public eye, unflappable, devout, indulgent, outwardly reserved, inwardly passionate, unsentimental, inquisitive, young at heart.

All of these describe Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth II, who has reigned through more seismic social change than any monarch, since 1066 (Charles I included). From the Abdication to the Sussexes, she has witnessed family crises on a scale not seen since the days of George III.

Yet she is not merely hanging on. She is a 21st Century global phenomenon commanding unrivalled respect and affection. Sealed off during the greatest peacetime emergency of modern times, she has stuck to her own maxim: 'I must be seen to be believed.' And, now she is preparing for an event without parallel since the reign of Louis XIV: her Platinum Jubilee.

On February 6th, 2022, she marks 70 years on the Throne. Robert Hardman, the acclaimed and respected author of Her Majesty and Queen of the World has already examined the Queen as a modern monarch and her role as a stateswoman abroad. Now, he wraps up the full story of one of the undisputed greats in a thousand years of monarchy.

Hardman distils Elizabeth's complex life in to a must-read study of dynastic survival and renewal. It is a portrait of a world leader, who remains as intriguing today as the day she came to the Throne, aged twenty-five.

With peerless access to members of the Royal Family, staff, friends and royal records, Queen of Our Time will bring fresh insights and scholarship on the modern royal story. There will be no more thorough, more readable, more original book on the record-breaking Elizabeth II as she reaches a landmark, which surely, can never be equaled.
