Product Description

When Queen Victoria's husb&, Prince Albert, died in December 1861 the nation was paralysed with grief.

His death was a catastrophe for Victoria, who not only adored her husband but had, through twenty-one years of marriage, utterly relied on him: as companion, father of their children, friend, confidant, & unofficial private secretary. Without Albert to guide & support her, the Queen retreated into a state of pathological grief which nobody could penetrate & few understood.

Drawing widely on contemporary letters, diaries & memoirs, Rappaport brings new light to bear on the causes of Albert's death & tracks Victoria's mission to commemorate her husband in perpetuity.

Richly compelling, this is the story of a magnificent obsession that even death could not sever.

This paperback book has 336 pages & measures: 19.7 x 12.7 x 2.2cm.
