Queen Elizabeth II: Before the Crown

Overview

George VI was said to have called Elizabeth his "pride" and Margaret his "joy." Much of Princess Elizabeth's lessons in life have been well taught by her father, who prepared Elizabeth to be queen as soon as he was coronated. It's likely that this boost helped to inspire Elizabeth's well-known loyalty and devotion to the United Kingdom. The influence of her surroundings, and the very nature of her family, shaped her into becoming the longest-reigning monarch in all of British History. Elizabeth was taught from such a young age, what a monarch should be about. She put in the forthright dedication just as much and her father did, and is now known to have become... The longest reigning monarch... In British History.
