Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Queen Victoria's favourite child - the true story of a royal mother-daughter relationship that changed historyBeatrice was the last child born to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Her father died when she was four and as Matthew Dennison relates Victoria came to depend on her youngest daughter absolutely, but she also demanded from her complete submission.It is an enthralling story, not just of a mother/daughter relationship, but of a Queen and subject relationship. Beatrice succumbed to her mother's obsessive love, so that by the time she was in her late teens she was her constant companion and running her mother's office, which meant that when Victoria died her daughter became literary executor, a role she conducted with teutonic thoroughness. She edited and bowdlerised her mother's Journals that cover 70 years and where possible her voluminous correspondence.Although Victoria tried to prevent Beatrice even so much as thinking of love, her guard slipped when Beatrice was 29. She met Liko, Prince Henry of Battenberg, and fell in love. Beatrice, however, did not end up simply as a wife and mother. She loved music and composed a military march which remains in the repertoire of British regimental bands, she sang and she painted. Matthew Dennison draws on extensive new material to restore Princess Beatrice to her rightful place as a key figure in the Victorian dynasty. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. 302 pages. Text lightly tanned, one plate sitting loose.Beatrice was the last child born to Queen Victoria and Prince Albert. Her fat her died when she was four and Victoria came to depend on her youngest daughter absolutely, but she also demanded from her complete submission. It is an enthral ling story, not just of a mother/daughter relationship, but of a Queen and subje ct relationship. Victoria was not above laying it down regally even with her own children. Beatrice succumbed to her mother's obsessive love, so that by the tim e she was in her late teens she was running her mother's office, which meant tha t when Victoria died her daughter became literary executor, a role she conducted with teutonic thoroughness. She edited and bowdlerised her mother's journal tha t cover 70 years and where possible her voluminous correspondence. But thank goo dness Beatrice inherited some of her mother's more steely qualities. Although Vi ctoria tried to prevent Beatrice even so much as thinking of love, her guard sli pped when Beatrice was 29. Perhaps Victoria thought she was over the hill, but B eatrice met Liko, Prince Henry of Battenberg, and fell in love. As Dennison puts it: hers was a 'hard-won victory of love over family prejudice, political relac tance and, most significantly, Queen Victoria's opposition. Sadly, Beatrice inhe rited from her mother the haemophilia gene, which she passed on to two of her fo ur sons and which her daughter Victoria Eugenia, in marrying Alfonso XIII of Spa in, in turn passed on to the Spanish royal family. Beatrice, however, did not en d up simply as a wife and mother. She loved music and composed a military march (which apparently remains in the repertoire of British regimental bands), she sa ng and she painted. Dennison sums up: She was an essential component in the smoo.…
