Diana, Princess of Wales was admired throughout the world for her vitality, determination and beauty. When she first came on the royal scene, she brought a new dimension to the Royal Family and was soon regarded as one of the most glamorous women in the world. Yet she remained very much her own person: tough but touchingly vulnerable, self-willed but compassionate to a degree that was unprecedented in one of her generation and background.

Her tragic death in 1997, when she was in the prime of her life, shocked the world and unleashed a tide of public grief on a scale rarely seen. More than a quarter of a century may have passed since then, but her worldwide popularity remains as strong as ever: she is the unforgettable Diana.

Fully illustrated with beautiful photographs, this special commemorative book by royal biographer Brian Hoeyβ€”who had the privilege of meeting Diana on several occasionsβ€”pays tribute to the life of this remarkable young woman.
