From Cottage to Palace by Margaret Bramford

From Cottage to Palace by Margaret Bramford

In honor and celebration of The Queen's Platinum Jubilee (70 years on the throne ), escape to a bygone era with this cheeky and endearing royal memoir. Florence Bramford (circled) was a Ladies' Maid to the Ladies in Waiting of two Queen Elizabeths from 1939 to 1974. Think real-life The Queen (Netflix), Downton Abbey, or Upstairs Downstairs ... inside the British Royal Family from the servant's perspective half a century ago including rare royal photographs taken on tour.

Margaret Bramford presents the life of her aunt, told in her own words. Florence had a Victorian childhood and Edwardian adolescence. She was privileged to reside in many royal residences with her Ladies in Waiting and joined many Royal Tours around the world. God bless Florence
