Summary | "Queen Victoria" by Lytton Strachey is a historical biographical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the life and reign of Queen Victoria, exploring her early antecedents, childhood, important relationships, and the political intricacies she faced as a ruler. The opening of the biography begins with the tragic tale of Princess Charlotte, an heir to the British throne, whose tumultuous life and untimely death set off a critical chain of events leading to the birth of Queen Victoria. It details the circumstances of Victoria's family background, including her mother, the Duchess of Kent, and her father, the Duke of Kent. The narrative continues to outline the initial struggles and challenges faced by Victoria's parents and sets the stage for her future as a young princess; it hints at the complexities of the royal family dynamics that would influence her reign. This early segment paints a vivid picture of the tensions and intrigues that characterized Victoria's lineage, establishing a foundation for understanding her place in British history.
