Opinion Piece on Queen Victoria and Motherhood

Queen Victoria, Another Maligned Mother

Julia Baird, New York Times

Julia Baird has published an opinion piece in the New York times using a review of a book to comment on how mothers who work continue to be maligned in the 21st Century.

She focused on how Queen Victoria has been misrepresented through selective editing and interpretations of her diaries and letters and has been given bad press ever since. Have a read – and we look forward to Julia’s book on Queen Victoria
