Oh yes, she's an excellent historian and researcher, and writes exactly like her tv scripts, accurate, readable and funny.
She also points out which events and actions, originated with Victoria, have come down to the present day. White wedding dresses, public events, balcony appearances, photoshopping, Victorian style, of unflattering pix of royals.
Well worth your time if you like the nineteenth century, its quirks and foibles, as well as its history.
I'm a Worsley fan, any period of time. She shows how to be a fine scholar and researcher without being self important. And she's not above dressing the part, and having fun at work, a big point.
