Summary

This book celebrates the highlights and challenges of HM Queen Elizabeth II's reign over the past seven decades。

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has carried out her role as Sovereign with flawless professionalism。 Her demeanor has been perfect, and in the seventy years she has reigned she has epitomized all the hallmarks of an iconic sovereign beloved of her people。

As Heir Presumptive, the young Princess Elizabeth received special tuition in law and constitutional history to prepare her for her future role as Sovereign。

When she succeeded her father, King George VI, on 6th February 1952, Elizabeth was only twenty-five years old。 Married for just five years with two young children, her life changed irrevocably。 The responsibilities of monarchy have taken precedence over all else, and the public duties invariably have first call on the Queen's time and energy。
