The Queen: A Biography of Elizabeth II"There will be no better biography of Elizabeth II as a figure of state until her official one appears and perhaps not even then."

"There will be no better biography of Elizabeth II as a figure of state until her official one appears--and perhaps not even then."
--The Independent

"One of the many merits of Ben Pimlott's superbly judicious biography of Elizabeth II is that it understands this connection between monarchy and masses, and carefully evokes its political importance."
--The New York Times Book Review

"The best all-around study of the Queen so far, showing understanding as well as amused irony."
--Sunday Telegraph

Written by Ben Pimlott, considered Britain's most respected political biographer, The Queen brings us the most authentic life yet of the reigning monarch. For the first time, Buckingham Place opened its doors and those closest to the queen provided compelling new information into Elizabeth's life and reign. New sources include the unpublished diaries of Jock Colville, public secretary to both Churchill and Elizabeth, as well as interviews with Princess Margaret, Archbishop of Canterbury Lord Runcie, and longtime private secretary Lord Charteris.

Don't pass this one by
Color: Gunmetal Grey, Size: Rechargeable
This is the best wine opener we ever had...push button once...it goes in, pulls cork out, then reverses and drops cork in your hand...all with one push of the button. Long battery life between charges.

Quality wine opener.
Color: 7-in-1 Silver, Size: Rechargeable Set
I really like this wine opener. It's well made. The foil cutter is metal unlike the last one I had that was plastic and broke. The wine stopper works well to take air out of the bottle and seal it. It also has a cool blue light that comes on when in use and charging.
