To mark the occasion of Queen Elizabeth II becoming the UK’s longest reigning monarch, Illustrated London News Ltd has published this beautiful, limited edition two book set, exploring the lives of Elizabeth II and Victoria, documenting Britain’s evolution under their reigns, from Empire to Commonwealth, steam trains to space travel.

Volume 1: The Record Number of a Record Reign: In 1897, Illustrated London News paid tribute to Victoria’s era-defining monarchy with The Record Number of a Record Reign. This commemorative publication honoured Queen Victoria’s reign and the grand accomplishments of Victorian Britain. 

Volume 2: The Record Reign of Her Majesty The Queen: This new volume celebrates Queen Elizabeth’s extraordinary time on the throne. With thoughtful editorial and unseen archival images, it reflects on the evolution of Britain and the monarchy since 1952. This beautiful record of Queen Elizabeth’s reign is produced to the same impeccable standards as The Record Number of a Record Reign.

Details

Regarded as the Illustrated London News’ most lavish publication, no expense has been spared in meticulously reproducing this extraordinary historic record. The Record Reign book set was formally presented to Her Majesty The Queen on 9 September 2015, the day she became Britain’s longest-reigning monarch.
