... of the title, "The Private Life", is badly misleading. I didn't want to read a lurid tabloid-esque account of the Queen's life, the like that would be at home next to all those books about Diana, but I did expect it to focus on her home and family life. It doesn't. It is, in fact, a brief history of the reign and life of Elizabeth II.
