Do Let's Have Another Drink!
The Dry Wit and Fizzy Life of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother
1 of 1 copy available
During her lifetime, the Queen Mother was as famous for her clever quips, pointed observations, and dry-as-a-martini delivery style as she was for being a beloved royal. Now, Do Let's Have Another Drink recounts 101 (one for each year of her remarkable life) amusing and astonishing vignettes from across her long life, including her coming of age during World War I, the abdication of her brother-in-law and her unexpected ascendance to the throne, and her half century of widowhood as her daughter reigned over the United Kingdom. Featuring new revelations and colorful anecdotes about the woman Cecil Beaton, the high society photographer, once summarized as "a marshmallow made on a welding machine," Do Let's Have Another Drink is a delightful celebration of one of the most consistently popular members of the royal family.
