A royal event this side of the Atlantic that is not to be missed! Meet biographer Andrew Morton, who will discuss his latest book, The Queen, in conversation with popular royal commentator, Victoria Arbiter.

The Queen takes an in-depth look at Britain’s longest-reigning monarch and explores the influence the late Queen Elizabeth II had on Britain and the rest of the world. From leading a nation struggling to restore itself after the devastation of World War II to navigating the divisive political landscape of recent times, Queen Elizabeth was a reluctant but resolute monarch. This is the story of a woman of unflagging self-discipline who will long be remembered as a mother and grandmother to Great Britain and one of the greatest sovereigns of the modern era.

This program is presented in partnership with Ferguson LibraryBook sale and signing, hosted by Elm Street Books, will follow the presentation. This event will be held at Ferguson's Main Library in the Third Floor Auditorium in Stamford.
