Publisher's Synopsis
Diana Spencer's engagement to Prince Charles, announced in 1981, first cast the spotlight on the girl who was to become one of the most intriguing and influential royals in modern history, despite deep resistance in royal circles against her - particularly its traditionalist wing. Througout, until her untimely death in 1997, Diana frequently gave interviews and shared her thoughts with many people. In this fresh portrait over almost 20 years, Nigel Cawthorne gathers her most salient words from the very first till the very last - some known, some forgotten. With no point to make or effect to achieve other thatn the words themselves, they show a remarkable woman who is still able to inspire us two decades on.
