Exploring four centuries of British history, Walker analyzes how Queen Elizabeth's image has symbolized Englishness across various political and social contexts. The book delves into diverse cultural representations, including art, literature, and popular culture, highlighting her enduring influence from the Restoration to modern times. By examining everything from Georgian ballads to Suffragette banners, Walker illustrates how the icon of Elizabeth gains significance as the concept of Englishness evolves and becomes increasingly subjective.
