Biography & Autobiography.
Nonfiction.
HTML:The sensational biography of Princess Diana, written with her cooperation and now featuring exclusive new material to commemorate the 20th anniversary of her death. When Diana: Her True Story was first published in 1992, it forever changed the way the public viewed the British monarchy. Greeted initially with disbelief and ridicule, the #1 New York Times bestselling biography has become a unique literary classic, not just because of its explosive contents but also because of Diana's intimate involvement in the publication. Never before had a senior royal spoken in such a raw, unfiltered way about her unhappy marriage, her relationship with the Queen, her extraordinary life inside the House of Windsor, her hopes, her fears, and her dreams. Now, twenty-five years on, biographer Andrew Morton has revisited the secret tapes he and the late princess made to reveal startling new insights into her life and mind. In this fully revised edition of his groundbreaking biography, Morton considers Diana's legacy and her relevance to the modern royal family.
An icon in life and a legend in death, Diana continues to fascinate. Diana: Her True Story in Her Own Words is the closest we will ever come to her autobiography.… (plus d'informations)
I've been a fan of Lady Diana Spencer's since I first heard of her engagement to Prince Charles. I remember getting up in the wee hours of the morning, back in 1981, and watching their wedding--along with half the world! I would never say I was obsessed with her, but I have definitely always loved her and all that she stood for. I was crushed when the world lost that angel! I prefer, lately, to read memoirs written by (or mostly by) the subject themselves. However, finding this book and knowing that it involved actual interviews with Diana, I believe this is the closest I could get to her memoir. Most things I'd always heard about her, already, were presented in this bio. There were definitely new items that were brought to light. Mostly, though, I was interested in (and rewarded with) simple insight into who Diana was. I certainly wanted to know the things she dealt with, all the events that brought us to her demise. But I wanted to know who she really was, what her youth was like, etc. I was very pleased with this book! ( )
The time period of this book is before Diana and Charles were divorced and her death. Very evident why the people of England named her :/the People's Princess".
An insightful account of the life of one of the most beloved and influential people of recent years. Many things I did not know about Diana and I'm glad I read this book. ( )
