In 1939, on a royal tour of Dartmouth Naval College, Princess Elizabeth
(later Queen Elizabeth II) meets the dashing Prince Philip
of Greece. Immediately they begin a correspondence, as war breaks
out across Europe, where Philip is sent to serve in the Navy.
Elizabeth convinces her father the King, despite his reservations,
to allow her to sign up to the war effort and joins the Women’s
Auxiliary Territorial Service. Serving her country, driving trucks
and fixing cars, Elizabeth wonders, will she ever see her prince
again…?

This is a book about Princess Margaret. It is a real story. It is a diary about her. It is her life but fiction has been added to it. Princess Margaret's sister, Elizabeth who is heir to the throne is in love with Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark. It is about the 2nd world war. Prince Philip is partly a German so the world might not allow him to marry the heir to the throne. Read more and find out...

It is written from Pricess Margret's point of view about her sister Elizabeth so it's got all her feelings.
