About this ebook

The Queen of Great Britain and Ireland for 63 years, the mother of nine children and grandmother to 42, Queen Victoria's life was one of magnificent proportions.

It's a good for those who are interested in royal's history and hierarchy. It gives us the info about how she was dominated in her childhood and the way she get to the crown. Also it gives us the info about her beloved and politicals, her nine offsprings whom she don't like in beginning but at the end she was supported, popularised by them. And the way she ruled over whole Europe and worked over her expansionist programme and died happily, buried with her beloved whom she loved more than herself.
