Summary:
For seventy years, Queen Elizabeth ruled over an institution and a family. During her lifetime she was constant in her desire to provide a steady presence and to be a trustworthy steward of the British people and the Commonwealth. In the face of her uncles abdication, in the uncertainty of the Blitz, and in the tentative exposure of her family and private life to the public via the press, Elizabeth became synonymous with the crown. But times change. Recent years have brought grief and turmoil to the House of Windsor, and even as England celebrated the Queens Platinum Jubilee, there were calls for a changing of the guard.
