"Queen Victoria as I Knew Her" by Sir Theodore Martin is a first-person account of the author's association with Queen Victoria. The pair became introduced when she asked him to write a book about her late husband, Albert. As one of the longest-ruling queens Britain has ever had, Martin had great respect for her and wished to show the human side of the monarch in this matter-of-fact book. This book is a useful tool for history lovers and those who wish to learn more about this important figure.
