An interesting book ,even though deeply disappointed in the writers who seem to want to put up a "good face" of a depraved women who murdered a million people because they where not of german blood or of the protestant "faith". The book doesn't dwell on the mass murder of Victoria because i guess it would make the two English women writers very unpopular in Brexit bloody Britain. Villainous Victoria would be better!

Odd the book misses a very important event in Victoria & alberts reign ie the stealing of the kohinoor diamond from India. The book while mentioning facts still often feels like an attempt to humanize a immoral and power hungry and greedy tyrant who stole from the people they ruled over including the Irish & Indians.

No mention of the million Irish who starved to death under Victoria during the potato famine Or how the Muslim sultan of turkey offered $ 10,000 in famine relief to the Irish and was told to tone it down to 1000 to match Victoria’s 2000.
The book sadly seems to cover up one of the most Criminal and genocidal imperial act of Victoria and is disappointing in that sense
