The book is an expertly researched and written, fully illustrated, hardback title authored by The New York Times best-selling writer and royal author Robert Jobson. The commemorative album also features the photography of legendary royal photographer Arthur Edwards MBE, who has been capturing images of the Royal Family for more than 45 years.  

Charting King Charles’s life from his celebrated birth and early years, through his role and responsibilities as the Prince of Wales, to his accession and coronation as King, the book reflects on the ideas and issues that he has championed along the way. It also considers how The King intends to shape a relevant and future-facing monarchy for the world of today and tomorrow.

The hardback book, published by St. James’s House, was unveiled at Claridge’s in London to an audience of 400 attending guests and members of the press.

St James’s House has produced landmark publications on the British Royal Family for more than two decades and has been the official publisher for several major royal events, including the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant, The Queen’s 90th Birthday Celebration and The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Pageant.

The commemorative album showcases research and innovations, spotlighting advancements across social, cultural, technological, and commercial domains. Alchemie Technology is prominently featured in a dedicated chapter on Sustainability champions, focussing on Alchemie's textile dyeing and finishing technologies which significantly minimize energy consumption and wastewater emissions.

During visits to dye houses in China, Dr Alan Hudd, CEO & Founder of Alchemie Technology, witnessed firsthand the detrimental environmental effects of the outdated dye industry.

“The light bulb moment came when I was touring one of 50 or 60 dye houses in China” says Dr Hudd “These locations pose significant concerns, particularly regarding pollution due to the extensive dumping of chemicals into rivers. It is an industry that's lagging behind, reminiscent of a bygone era. I showed the owner of the dye business a video of the technology I was developing, and he said it had the potential to transform textile dyeing. That was when I realised this technology has the power to change the industry.”
