Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. Second printing. "When I was born, I was unwanted. When I married Charles, I was unwanted. When I joined the Royal Family, I was unwanted. I want to be wanted." - Princess Diana. "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. During 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. Among the revelations: Important new information about Diana's final moments alive, the accident itself - and what no one knew about the other convicted drunk driver in the car than night; Prince Charles's surprising reaction to the news of Diana's death - including his shock the first time he saw her body - the Queen's bizarre request, and a riveting account of how Prince William and Prince Harry coped with their shock and grief; The broken romance that pushed her into the arms of Dodi Fayed, their curious relationship, and whether or not she truly planned to marry him; A behind-the-scenes account of the battle royal that raged between the Queen and Prince Charles in the days leading up to the funeral; Diana's spiritual quest, and the warnings that might have saved her; Final answers to persistent rumors that Diana was pregnant at the time of the accident, that cocaine was found in the car - and that she was the victim of a murder plot; At the end, what Diana wanted for her sons, her vision of a future King William - and the man she mosts wanted him to emulate. Diana was, in ever 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." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

"Michael Jackson was the most talked-about, written-about, and rumored-about pop star of all time even before headline-grabbing child sex-abuse charges threatened to end his career. That he is at the epicenter of the show-business scandal of the century seems only fitting: Michael Jackson is, after all, generally conceded to be the greatest entertainer of our time. Reclusive, enigmatic, and utterly fascinating, he is also the man for whom the word "bizarre" might have been invented. Now bestselling author Christopher Andersen strips away the mystique with the first comprehensive, uncompromising biography of the most controversial person - male or female - on the planet. Interviewing countless friends, advisers, family members, teachers, coworkers, business partners, neighbors, intimates, and employees, Andersen paints a mesmerizing, often shocking, portrayal of the Man in the Mirror. Michael Jackson Unauthorized is packed with startling revelations, including: New deatils of his relationships with Diana Ross, Elizabeth Taylor, Jackie Onassis, Brooke Shields, Tatum O'Neal, Prince, Kate Hepburn, Jane Fonda, Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney, Madonna - as well as sisters La Toya and Janet; Michael's fascination with the occult and the Mafia; The true extent of his plastic surgery, and the strange reasons behind Jackson's desperate efforts to remake himself; A rare behind-the-scenes glimpse inside Jackson's billion-dollar business empire as well as his schemes for creating controversies to keep him in the public eye - and how that strategy backfired spectacularly; From his "family" of mannequins, his hyperbaric chamber, and the Elephant Man's bones to the single glove and the surgical masks - why Michael cultivated his image as the Wizard of Odd; Michael's history of panic attacks and breakdowns - and how drug addiction pushed him to the brink of suicide; The full, untold story of Michael and his "special friends" - what really happened between this modern Pied Piper and his followers. Here is Michael Jackson in all his brilliance and complexity: the crotch-grabbing sex symbol who at thirty-six remains a virgin; the preening narcissist who hates his face so much he transforms it through plastic surgery; the diehard promoter of family virtues who resents his own; the man who never had a childhood - and the child who never grew up. As compelling and provocative as its subject, Michael Jackson Unauthorized chronicles in searing detail the meteoric rise and astonishing fall of the world's greatest living pop culture icon." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

I went through some pretty difficult times, and I kept my sanity." - Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, from the rear outer jacket. " "Jack was the love of my life. No one will ever know a big part of me died with him." Jackie Kennedy was only thirty-four when Camelot ended in a blaze of gunfire on Novermber 22, 1963. With JFK, she had captured the world's imagination. Without him, she would hold it until her own death three decades later - achieving a kind of global fame that has raarely been known in this century. Billions of words have been written about her, but Jackie guarded her privacy so fiercely that she remains veiled in mystery and mystique. In this much-anticipated sequel to his 1996 besteller, Jack and Jackie, Christoper Andersen draws on previously sealed archival material and newly declassified documents - as well as important sources who have agrred to speak here for the first time - to paint a sympathetic yet often startling portrait of Jackie in all her rich complexity. Among the revelations: Important new information about Dallas and its aftermath - including Jackie's battle with suicidal depression; Previously unreported romances with world famous men, including Marlon Brando; The true nature of Jackie's relationship with Robert F. Kennedy; Stunning revelations about her relationship with Aristotle Onassis, the real reason she married him, and how their marriage disintegrated; How she avoided the Kennedy perils in raising her children; her impact on JFK Fr.'s romantic life; Jackie's spiritual quest, and never-before-revealed details about her brave final days. Alone after Dallas, Jackie summoned the strength, grace, and dignity to go on. Jackie After Jack traces this remarkable woman's personal journey - and captures the drama, humor, glamour, and heartache that have made Jackie an enduring source of fascination and inspiration for millions." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

They're my life." - Diana, Princess of Wales, from the rear outer jacket. "I hug my children to death. I get into bed with them at night and hug them and say who loves them most in the whole world, and they always say, 'Mummy.'" That the beautiful, complicated Princess of Wales - arguably the most celebrated woman of the twentieth century - died so violently and so young was tragic. That she was a single mother leaving behind two emotionally vulnerable sons made Diana's death at thirty-six all the more heartbreaking. Four years after Diana's death, Prince William and his brother Prince Harry - "the heir and the spare," as Fleet Street dubbed them - are the planet's two most-photographed, written-about, and speculated-about young men. People everywhere feel an intense affection for Wills and Harry, and wonder if, without their mother to guide them, they are withering or flourishing in the House of Windsor. In this much-anticipated sequel to his New York Times #1 bestseller The Day Diana Died, Christopher Andersen draws on important sources - many of whom have agreed to speak here for the first time - to paint this sympathetic yet often startling portrait of William and Harry, and reveal how their mother remains a constant presence in their lives. Among the revelations: New details about the hours and days after they lost their mother, how they coped in the wake of the tragedy, and who William blames for the crash that killed Diana. How the young princes were caught in the crossfire of their parents' tempestuous, often brutal marriage, and what impact that continues to have on them as young men. The behind-the-scenes maneuvering by the Queen to mold her grandsons in the Windsor image, and to what extent she has succeeded or failed. Camilla's growing role in the boys' lives, her secret pledge to Charles's sons, and whether they would accept her as their stepmother. The disturbing influence of William's friends - including rebellious, drug-abusing aristocrats - and the Palace's fight to keep them from leading the future king astray. The undisclosed threats on the princes' lives and the recurring nightmare that still haunts William. Harry's story - his hopes, dreams, and fears as he struggles with life in the shadow of his brother. The women in William's life and what he has confided he wants in a future queen. Diana's Boys is more than the first comprehensive biography of the world's two most celebrated royals. Just as Andersen's bestsellers Jack and Jackie, Jackie After Jack, and The Day John Died allowed us to once again experience Camelot, readers will relive the tender relationship between Diana and her spirited offspring. This is the story of a mother who died too young and the children who are her living legacy." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
