Queen Victoria's Journals - freely available online

All the personal journals of Queen Victoria have been made available to search and read online. This unique resource is now openly available to everybody at http://www.queenvictoriasjournals.org

The journals span Victoria's lifetime and consist of 141 volumes. Transcriptions of each page–searchable by keyword–are currently provided for the period up to 1840, with further releases planned throughout the year. The site includes an interactive timeline and drawings by Queen Victoria , selections from her sketchbooks and a number of essays about aspects of Queen Victoria's life, authored by Sir Roy Strong, Laurence Goldman and Peter Ward-Jones among others.
