Sobre IBD

From the time they were in their cradles Victoria and Albert were destined for each other. However the passive Albert is well aware that marriage to a quick-tempered demonstrative young woman like Victoria could result in unnecessary scenes and stormy court feuds. And he is right. The young Queen as well has having to endure her constant pregnancies is in perpetual revolt against any encroachment on her position - and Albert is doing just that. Despite attempts on her life and crises like the Crimean War and the Indian Mutiny her family - Albert and their nine children - is her prime concern. The Victorian age is truly under way - but the real power behind the throne was the queen’s husband.
