Synopsis: To anyone who imagines that one year in the life of the Royal Family is much like another, the 1981/82 period covered by this book is something of a surprise. In fourteen months the world has watched a brilliant royal wedding and rejoiced in the birth of an infant as yet unaware of his high destiny. Between those events the Queen has conscientiously undertaken her duties as Head of State, In Australasia, Sri Lanka and Canada, as well as at home, hosting the Pope, President Reagan and the Sultan of Oman. Hundreds of additional domestic engagements by her and members of her wide family have added colour and purpose to national events, from the tragedy of Penlee to the drama of the Falklands, and The Royal Family Yearbook brings the reality of this royal involvement into prespective with some 2500 brilliant, full-colour pictures and an informed, descriptive text.

Synopsis: "This is the stuff of which fairy tales are made." said the Archbishop of Canterbury in his address at the wedding of the Prince and Princess of Wales. It was an apt observation. The interest with which the nation watched the blossoming of their romance, the wave of enthusiasm and goodwill generated by their engagement, the excited anticipation and rapturous joy of their remarkable wedding - all these were fitting accompaniments to the whirlwind story of the quiet, unassuming daughter of an Earl who won the heart of the heir to the throne and became Britain's first Princess of Wales for over seventy years.
