Although relatively new to the royal biography community, Elisabeth has been fascinated by royal history since she was a small child. Her interest in Princess Mary arose when she was given a book to celebrate the silver jubilee of George V and saw a picture of Mary, who she believed resembled our current Princess Royal, Princess Anne. Her first book, a biography of Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood (1897-1965) will be published in February 2021 by the History Press. Elisabeth runs two very popular Princess Mary social media pages. https://www.instagram.com/princessmaryprincessroyal/ and https://www.facebook.com/PrincessMaryPrincessRoyalCountessofHarewood/ Elisabeth is a former student of Nottingham High School for Girls and has a Masters Degree from the University of Sheffield.
