About this book

After the success of Eminent Victorians, Lytton Strachey turned his ironic eye on the age's central figure. His life of Queen Victoria traces her from a lonely, sheltered childhood through her sudden accession as a teenager, her devoted marriage to Prince Albert, and the long widowhood that followed his death. Strachey writes with sympathy as well as wit, drawing a portrait of a woman who was often stubborn and naive yet grew into the symbol of an entire era. Warmer and more affectionate than his earlier debunking, the book won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize and confirmed him as the leading biographer of his generation. First published in 1921, this free PDF and EPUB edition presents the complete work.
