Book excerpt: "Step aside for royalty. Make way for the pride and pageantry. When it comes to the early years of Queen Elizabeth's reign only Eileen Parker could write a book like this. She was there. She was part of it. Eileen knew Prince Philip before his marriage. Later, her husband Mike Parker became the Prince's first private secretary and the 'Parkers of the Palace' became part of the furniture at court. Prince Philip even gave them his car. The events that tested the Parker's marriage to breaking point have been seen in fiction in the Netflix television series, The crown. Here's Eileen's story in her own words"--Back cover.
