The Day
Diana Died
by Christopher P. Anderson,
Christopher Anderson
- Book Description
Where were you the day Diana died? Like the assassination
of John F. Kennedy, the tragic death of the Princess of
Wales on August 31, 1997 is one of those defining
benchmarks in history -- an event that touched each of us
so profoundly, we will never forget the moment we heard
the news. A full year after the Paris car crash that
ended Diana's life at age thirty-six, millions around the
world remain in shock. Over the sixteen years since her
storybook wedding to Prince Charles, she had evolved from
"Shy Di" into the planet's most photographed,
written about, and talked about woman -- indeed, the most
famous person in the world. For all Diana's global
fame, much of the human drama that swirled around her
death remains veiled in mystery and intrigue. Now, in the
manner of his headline-making Kennedy biographies Jack
and Jackie and Jackie After Jack, Christopher Andersen
draws on important sources -- many of whom have agreed to
speak here for the first time -- to re-create in vivid
and often startling detail the events leading up to that
fateful night in Paris. 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 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.
