This is a complete, beautifully photographed history of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II from her coronation in 1952 to the Golden Jubilee. The photographs feature both the public pomp and circumstance and the elaborate preparations that go on behind the scenes. We see red carpets being swept, state carriages undergoing repairs, robes being laid out, and rehearsals taking place to create the colorful occasions that are the hallmark of the British monarchy.
