At 472 pages in length, this beautifully designed and fully illustrated book provides a rich photographic record of The Queen s life and tells her story from the excitement of her birth, through to her marriage, her accession to the throne and her subsequent reign of more than 60 years. It also reflects on the United Kingdom s role and influence during her lifetime.
The sewn-bound book is published in a hardback, portrait format (245 x 289mm) with a purple cloth finish and foil blocking on the cover and spine, and is wrapped in a matt laminated dust jacket. It is printed in metallic ink.

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME: The Queen s 90th Birthday Celebration will be a vibrant tribute to Her Majesty s life, her love of horses, her dedication to the Commonwealth and international affairs, and her deep involvement with the Armed Forces.
Reflecting these private and public interests, the event s official programme will shed light on the dedication and sense of duty that go to make The Queen such an iconic and inspirational figure. The 60-page, portrait format (245 x 289mm) publication will include articles penned by royal watchers and expert commentators, as well as invaluable insights into the various special guest performers, bands and organisations who will help to make these birthday celebrations so utterly unforgettable.
