About this book
<p><b>'What a fabulous book - a must for any royal watcher! It's elegant, stylish and gloriously illustrated. I didn't want it to end. I loved the original and innovative approach to the subject, and the new insights I gained. I cannot recommend it highly enough.' Alison Weir</b><br> <br> <b>'<i>Vogue,</i> like the royal family, has been through many evolutions of its own, and to view Her Majesty's life though the record of our pages is truly a document of history.' - Edward Enninful, Editor-in-Chief of British <i>Vogue</i><br></b><br> Five monarchs (crowned and uncrowned); one abdication; one royal investiture; a jewel box of jubilees and many, many royal marriages... British <i>Vogue</i> has borne witness to a century of royal history. As another reign begins, <i>The</i> <i>Crown in Vogue</i> is the magazine's 'special royal salute' to the House of Windsor.<br> <br> <i>Vogue</i>'s first star photographer, Cecil Beaton, was entranced by the House of Windsor and the admiration was mutual. A younger star photographer, Antony Armstrong Jones, left <i>Vogue</i> to marry the Queen's sister and returned as Lord Snowdon. The Queen's cousin, <i>Vogue</i>'s Lord Lichfield proved an insightful photographer of royal style along with many of <i>Vogue</i>'s fashion photographers including Horst, Norman Parkinson and David Bailey.<br> <br> With visual treasures from <i>Vogue</i>'s unrivalled archive and contributions through the decades from the most perceptive of royal commentators - from Evelyn Waugh to Zadie Smith - <i>The Crown in Vogue</i> is the definitive, authoritative portrait of Queen Elizabeth II's magnificent reign - and of royalty in the modern age.</p>
