Peace and war, triumph and disaster, joy and sadness -- the reign of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has encompassed them all. This richly illustrated volume takes you through 50 years of her reign, from the stage-managed opulence of the coronation to the informalities of everyday life. Tim Graham, who has specialized in photographing the Royal Family for more than 30 years, had unique access to events, both public and behind the scenes. Thus we see red carpets being swept, state carriages undergoing repairs, robes being laid out, and rehearsals of the colorful occasions that are the hallmark of the British monarchy. Since the day she declared to the nation, "My whole life, whether it be long or short, shall be devoted to your service, " the Queen has applied herself with diligence, loyalty and discretion. This is an admiring and affectionate tribute to her reign.
