Customer Reviews

This is an outstanding book with beautiful pictures.

Pictures of Queen Elizabeth II, the Queen Mother, Charles, Princes of Wales, the late Diana, Princess of Wales, adorn the cover of the book. This book is by far superior to to one written by Jane Masterson; also the photographer is one who has followed the royal family for years. The titles of the two books are almost identical, but the contents very greatly.The first picture is The Imperial Crown with its most historic jewel which is the Black Prince's ruby. When I first read this book, a few years ago, I remember thinking what an outstanding, gorgeous crown. About two pages over, it is explained using only a sentence or two. This book is filled with pictures of all members of the family. Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother is ninety-three years of age at this time and still delights in carrying out public duties.Mr. Graham captures outstanding picture of the family in a relaxed atmosphere, historic events, and the overseas tours of the royal family.It includes the late Diana, Princess of Wales and end with the wedding of Lafy Sarah Armstong-Jones to Mr. Daniel Chatto which took place quietly on July 14 at St. Stephen Walbrook, small Wren church in the city of London.Mr. Graham is always careful to caption each picture giving the names of all the individuals, the place, the function, and the date.The back cover has a photograph of the late Diana, Princess of Wales.This refers to the hardcover edition. 96 pages. 81/2"x12.
