Bio of queen due this fall

The British author known in part for his news-making bestseller on Princess Diana has a biography of Queen Elizabeth II coming out Nov. 15.

Andrew Morton’s “The Queen” was supposed to be published in 2023, but it was moved to this fall after the queen died Sept. 8 at age 96.

“During her long and storied reign Queen Elizabeth II devoted herself to her family and the wider family of nations. During times of national celebration and concern, she was the glue who kept the nation together,” Morton said in a statement released Wednesday by Grand Central Publishing.

“Teasing out the character of the woman behind the impassive mask has been one of the challenges and fascinations of this biography,” he said.
