This week, a new coffee table book reveals rare images of Britain's Queen Elizabeth II, that is aimed at an international market.
'Her Majesty', is published by Taschen and edited by Reuel Golden, who unearthed many of the photographs - some professional, some from archives and others taken by the public, while researching the project.
