Today we’re talking to Gareth Russell, a historian and author, whose book on the late Queen Mum we’ll be discussing today.

Did you know she had met the mother of Nicholas II? Or that she was born in Scotland? Would it surprise you to learn one of her suitors was called James Stuart?

Let's find out more...

Gareth's book was published with William Collins in the UK and Atria Books / Simon & Schuster in the USA.
