DIANA: THE PORTRAIT Author: Rosalind Coward Binding: Hardcover, 368 pages Price: RM189.90 SYNOPSIS The tragic death of Diana, Princess
of Wales, shook the world. No one who lived through those days in the late
summer of 1997 will ever forget the unprecedented outpourings of grief, shock,
and anger that followed. And in the days leading up to her funeral, it seemed as
if the whole of humanity had spontaneously united to mourn her loss.But who was
this young woman who had come to symbolize so much to so many? How was it that
she could reach out to touch lives not only of whole communities but
individuals, too? What lay behind her inspiration-and what will be the lasting
impact of her legacy? No book yet written about Diana has come close to the
person so many people speak of as having been a beacon of light in their lives.
Here, for the first time, is the Diana that many of those closest to her knew.
Written with the full cooperation of the late princess's estate, Diana: The
Portrait tells Diana's story through her own words and the words of people, both
famous, and, until now, unknown. Beautifully designed, it is a lavishly
illustrated with nearly 500 images of Diana, including many pictures never
previously published, taken from sources including the Spencer family archive,
the Althorp Museum, the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fund archive, and the
private collections of the friends, charities, and individuals whose lives she
touched. Drawing on over 200 original interviews, including those of family
members and friends, many of whom have never spoken before, this remarkable book
will stand as a unique and lasting testament to the life and work of one of the
extraordinary and enduring icons of the 20th century. |
