Description:Queen Elizabeth II visited the United States as princess and queen, officially and privately, eight times, from 1951 to 2010, never failing to make front page news. With the press documenting nearly every smile, speech, and backdrop as America watched, she met more U.S. presidents than any other head of state, thirteen of the fourteen who have served during her reign.Historic photographs from October 31, 1951, show the routines of life in the nation’s capital paused for her first arrival as thousands line closed streets for a glimpse of her waving beside President Harry S. Truman in the back of an open top convertible in a lengthy motorcade. They would be witnesses to a moment at the outset of her life’s work of service to her country, during which she would strengthen the Anglo-American relationship through a continuum of official visits and less formal excursions that took her to cities from coast to coast. She in turn would witness seventy years of White House history, and experience first-hand the White House traditions that would begin and end, evolve and endure over seventy years. Friendship is a recurring theme in the words she spoke on every visit and a motivation for the extent of her travels. “From time to time, friendships must be publicly reaffirmed,” she explained during a 1983 State Dinner in her honor.During her annual Christmas Day message in 2021, she drew attention to the milestone noting, “February . . . will see the start of my Platinum Jubilee year, which I hope will be an opportunity for people everywhere to enjoy a sense of togetherness, a chance to give thanks for the enormous changes of the last 70 years—social, scientific and cultural—and also to look ahead with confidence.” This unprecedented occasion provides a fitting time for White House History Quarterly to focus on White House history through the extraordinary experience of Queen Elizabeth II.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
