Explores aspects of Victoria's life, focusing on four roles - mentors, family, ministers and servants. This book tells about her close and faithful relationship with Albert, one of the great royal love stories, but her relationships with her sons were much more stormy. Also, she showed a decided partiality for Disraeli but disliked Gladstone.
