Queen Elizabeth II
Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life in Our Times | Sarah Bradford
14 posts
Elizabeth II has lived through the Abdication, the Blitz and World War Two, the sex and spy scandals of the swinging sixties, the Cold War and the nuclear threat and the Fall of the Berlin Wall. She has known 11 US Presidents including JFK and Ronald Reagan, and other world leaders like President Mandela and Pope John XXII. Her Prime Ministers have ranged from Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher to David Cameron, the last only ten years older than her grandson. Her own family experiences, a mixture of happiness and crisis, weddings and divorces, and, in the case of Diana, violent death, have been lived in the glare of tabloid headlines. More than 2 billion people watched the wedding of her grandson Prince William to Catherine Middleton in 2010 shortly before she made the first State Visit to Ireland by a British monarch for 100 years. Our world has changed more in her lifetime than in any of her predecessors': the Queen has remained a calm presence at the centre, earning the respect of monarchists and republicans.

September 9 #IndelibleMoments Loss As a Canadian who only had this Monarch all my life, I am very saddened by her passing. A great Era of her reign has ended.

Holding my breath. However I do not begrudge her going to her Phillip. 💔

LiseWorks I am very sad. She is the only Monarch that I know. As a Canadian I grew up with her photo in schools and on our postage stamps. 2y
TheBookHippie @LiseWorks ♥️🥺 I admire her greatly. My own grandma loved her so as well. 2y
CBee She hasn‘t been the same since her beloved Philip died 😔 2y

Scochrane26 My grandmother was from Ireland, and close in age to the Queen. She loved the Royal family, & in her later years, we would talk about the babies & wedding of Will & Kate. A lot of memories of my gmo tied up with the Queen. 2y

96 & still a horse girl! Buybeck Nightingale & Buybeck Katie are the names of these Fell ponies .

LeahBergen I love this pic. 🥰 2y
Leftcoastzen @LeahBergen I do too! She looks happy.💗last I heard she was on docs orders not to ride & pretty annoyed about it. (edited) 2y
LeahBergen I know! ☹️ I imagine she can‘t remember a time when she wasn‘t a rider. I was thoroughly impressed when I read what an active hand she took in regard to the breeding of her horses and dogs.

A quick 8 part series, each episode about 30 minutes, that was an interesting listen. #audiobook #audible
