A fully updated collection of the very best of Arthur's delightful colour pictures and unique stories, including the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, the 2012 Olympics, and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's new baby. In terms of royal photography, Arthur Edwards is a legend. For 30 years, he has captured the most poignant and memorable moments in the recent history of the monarchy. His images range from candid shots to intimate portraits to rare moments when protocol is put aside to reveal the true personalities behind. Princess Diana referred to him as "our Arthur" and Prince Charles introduces him to world leaders when they are on royal tours. He has been on hand to capture the blossoming romance and subsequent wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton. He was there to witness happy and loving moments at the start of Charles and Diana's marriage. He saw Prince William's first steps, and he was there for Prince Harry's first day at Eton. As well as having taken momentous pictures, Arthur has fascinating stories to go with them. For example, the time when Patti Palmer-Tomkinson announced to the assembled press that her "Uncle Harry" would be joining her party--and out stepped Prince Charles wearing false glasses, nose, and moustache. Or in Liverpool when a young lad rode up to Princess Diana and asked for a kiss--and she obliged.
