Queen legend Brian May is sharing another unusual hobby with fans - the guitarist has published a book of Victorian photographs.

The rock icon stunned devotees in 2007 when he revealed he was a science geek and was studying to complete a PhD degree in astrophysics. He even co-wrote a book with noted British astronomer Sir Patrick Moore, entitled Bang! The Complete History of the Universe.

Now May is revealing himself to be a history buff - he's teamed up with photo historian Elena Vidal to release a book of images from Victorian Britain in the 1850s. (MT/WNWCTE/IG)
