  A celebration of the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, this fabulous collection of photographs from the archives of the Daily Mail shows Queen Elizabeth from the time she was a new-born baby in 1926, through her childhood and the war years, to her marriage, her coronation and on throughout her incredible sixty years on the throne. Many of the photographs have rarely been seen since the day they were taken and the collection provides a fascinating view of the Queen's life during her public appearances, her foreign tours, relaxing at Balmoral, Windsor or Sandringham and with her grandparents, her parents, her children and her grandchildren. Michael Paterson's text sets this unique album of photographs in context, highlighting some of the major events in what has been a thoroughly eventful life and describing how the Queen and Prince Philip have coped with their hectic schedule over the past sixty years.
