Morton’s insightful analysis of the complex relationship between Queen Elizabeth and Princess Margaret succeeds in humanizing two extremely public figures and the myths surrounding them. It will engage history buffs, biography readers, and especially fans of The Crown.
A satisfying read about a woman of layered intent and the love of her life whom she never fully obtained. With frequent mentions of tantrums and pettiness, social climbing and backstabbing, this is a worthwhile account for all interested in the era.

Timely and thought provoking.
