The Power Behind The Throne

Today Queen Elizabeth is 90 years old. Her 'official' State birthday will be celebrated in June, but this is her 'real' anniversary. I pray she has a happy day with her family - children, grand-children and great grandchildren. There will, no doubt, be lots of celebratory books and TV programmes about this gracious lady, but can I mention just one. This book makes fascinating reading - and you can order it here, and read more about the contents. I love the picture on the front, approved by HM herself. It's as if she is glancing heavenward and thinking "At least YOU understand what this reigning job is all about - You've been doing it infinitely longer than I have" Thank you, Your Majesty, for all your years of faithful service to your God and your subjects. Happy Birthday

    I think she looks as though she could have a quiet giggle at something. Wonderful lady.

      I hope you are able to get hold of it in the States - it is NOT being sold through bookshops [even the Christian Bookshops] as the Queen herself has said it may not be sold at a profit. You have to get it direct from the Publishers.
