Krátky popis
She came to the throne in 1952 when Britain had a far-flung empire,
Winston Churchill was prime minister, sweets were rationed, mums
stayed at home and kids played on bombsites. In the seventy years
that followed everything changed utterly - except the Queen
herself, ageing far more gracefully than the fractious nation with
which she became synonymous. While the Queen is the motif for this
book, the story Engel tells is not about her - it is primarily
about the British.Through original research, interviews with people
who were there and his own memories of the time, Matthew Engel
traces the transformation of life in Britain as never before.
Beginning with the death of King George VI and ending on the eve of
Margaret Thatcher's election, Engel not only covers all the major
historical events but also explores everyday life - from the food
we ate and where we shopped, to what we watched on television and
the newspapers we read. In doing so, he brings these three decades
to life with his own light touch and a wealth of fascinating,
forgotten, often funny detail.
