The Crown: The Official Companion, Volume 1: Elizabeth II, Winston Churchill, and the Making of a Young Queen (1947-1955)
by

I enjoyed the TV series, which covered events dimly remembered from my childhood (and some much earlier). Then I came across the book, which told me what really happened, nominally between the years 1947 and 1955, but with frequent reference to earlier times. Reading it supplies a necessary corrective to what were fictional elements in the TV version of the story. The volume is well illustrated with some color and many black-and-white photographs, both from the series and from history.
