Diana
The outpouring of public emotion at the tragic early death of Diana, Princess of Wales has lived on in the memories of not just the entire British nation but billions of people across the world. From presidents to the poorest of the poor, from the glittering world of international stardom to her private visits to the homeless, the ill and the suffering, Diana touched the lives and hearts of all she encountered. Nicholas Owen provides a dignified portrait of Diana that is a lasting remembrance of every facet of her short life: her childhood and teenage years; her wedding to Prince Charles; tender moments with her adored children, William and Harry; her incandescent beauty; and her ceaseless work for charities. He also records the grief that engulfed the nation as it bid farewell to England's Rose, and looks at Diana's legacy - how she has been remembered, her effect on the Royal Family and how her influence can be seen in her sons. Diana - the People's Princess captures the very essence of the woman whose presence touched every corner of the world.

The Internet and Politics
