For all Diana's global fame, much of the human drama that swirled around her death remains veiled in mystery and intrigue. Where were you the day Diana died? Like the assassination of John F. A bittersweet saga of triumph, love, and loss, The Day Diana Died captures those last days when Diana's star never shone brighter -- and evokes the beauty, grace, heartache, and compassion that made Diana one of the most compelling figures of our time.. Diana was, in every sense of the word, larger than life -- a force of nature that, as the Royal Family learned, could be neither dismissed nor ignored. A full year after the Paris car crash that ended Diana's life at age thirty-six, millions around the world remain in shock. Now, in the manner of his headline-making Kennedy biographies Jack and Jackie and Jackie After Jack, ChristopIn other words, if People magazine were to offer a class about the late princess, The Day Diana Died would be required reading. From the nurse who covered her naked, lifeless body and who answered the queen's immediate query of "where are the jewels?" to the off-duty paramedic who held Diana's head in his hands, The Day Diana Died leaves no sacred rock unturned. What was the expression on Prince Charles's face when he saw Diana's mutilated body? How did Prince William and Harry react when they first heard the devastating news? Was there cocaine in the Mercedes? Inquiring minds want to know, and Christopher Andersen serves up a hefty portion of hearsay for those with an insatiable Diana appetite. Not meant for individuals with delicate sensibilities, this collage of reliable, low-profile sources covers everything from the measurements of Diana and Dodi's wounds to Camilla Parker-Bowles's two cents on her rival's death. --Rebekah Warren. A year after PrincesBrown’s book and I found I just can’t help loving it. I was also irritated at having to search for the odd nugget to do with the plot amongst a wash of "stuff".If the author produces another book like this I will not buy it.. But knowing Nicole Peeler it will be one heck of a series finale. It doesn't go into too much detail so it keeps the kids innocent. I appreciate that Stokstad and Cothren are attempting to be more broad. Well done! Utterly charming! Wonderful recipes.. All historical periods of art history are chronicled, with copious illustrations well-produced and nearly all in color. This book was exactly what I was looking for! Great for beginners, but there are also challenging songs thrown in for the more advanced. We are all familiar with our tendency to call the flesh of dead cow "beef," but Dunayer digs deeper and calls for an end to other common practices that undermine the individuality and unique personality of each and every nonhuman animal that exists. Another noteworthy mention is Jenise Aminoff's "Fate" in which a mother with the gift of sight tries desperately to alter her son's destiny and pays a high price in the end.This reviewer found some stories a bit more challenging to follow than others, but believes there is enough variety in subject matter and writing style to satisfy even the most critical reader. There is a Q & A
