Serving Victoria

Life in the Royal Household
Jul 18, 2015uncommonreader rated this title 2.5 out of 5 stars
Based on letters and diaries, Hubbard describes Court life at Windsor, Balmoral and on the Isle of Wight. Life was boring and banal, becoming more and more middle-class and conservative over time. Unfortunately, the book does not provide much context or situate Victoria as a symbol of Empire.
