The cover for this book is humorous!
This book relates how Queen Victoria would love to peel off her many layers of clothing and swim. Well, her husband Prince Albert does not want her to be improper so he designs and builds a cart where she can undress and dive into the Atlantic without being observed . . .or so they think.
Fun, rhyming text. The illustrations reveal what a close, wonderful relationship Queen Victoria and Prince Albert maintained.
A photograph of the actual bathing machine is shown in the back.
Lots of other information about Queen Victoria under the Author's Note.
