"The Girlhood of Queen Victoria, Vol. 1 (of 2): A Selection from Her Majesty's Diaries" edited by Viscount Esher is a historical account published in the early 20th century. This work captures the early years of Queen Victoria through her personal journals, detailing her life from 1832 to 1840 as she navigates the complexities of royal upbringing and the societal expectations of her time. The primary focus is on the experiences of the young Victoria as she embarks on various royal progresses across England. At the start of this account, we are introduced to thirteen-year-old Victoria as she begins her journal, describing her journey from Kensington Palace to Wales. Her entries reflect a mixture of youthful innocence and royal duty, detailing the beautiful landscapes encountered, her interactions with various nobility, and the peculiarities of royal life. As she travels, Victoria observes the warmth of the people and the striking contrasts of her privileged existence against the backdrop of a rapidly changing British society. Throughout this opening portion, we see glimpses of the young Queen's character developing amidst her formative experiences, setting the stage for her later reign.
