"Waiting On" Wednesday is a feature created and hosted by Breaking the Spine which spotlights an upcoming release.
My pick today is
Queen Victoria: Daughter, Wife, Mother, Widow by Lucy Worsley
Title: Queen Victoria: Daughter, Wife, Mother, Widow
Author: Lucy Worsley
Pages: 288
Publisher: Hodder & Stoughton
Release Date: 6th September 2018
Blurb from Goodreads:
Bestselling author
and historian Lucy Worsley tracks a new course through Queen Victoria's
life, examining how she transformed from dancing princess to the Widow
of Windsor and became one of Britain's greatest monarchs along the way.
Taking twenty-four significant days from Victoria's life, from her
birth, her wedding, her coronation to her husband's death, and many more
in between, allows us to see Victoria up close and personal, examining
how she lived hour to hour.
Published to coincide with the 200th
anniversary of Queen Victoria's birth, this major new biography will
celebrate Queen Victoria as a woman of her time, who lived an
extraordinary life.
Why I'm Anticipating this book:
I'm a big Lucy Worsley fan and I have her Jane Austen at Home book (although I haven't read it yet). I love her documentaries.
I also find Queen Victoria really interesting so I can't wait to read this!
Also, how gorgeous is that cover?
