About this listen
Only Tina Brown, former editor-in-chief of Tatler, England's glossiest gossip magazine, as well as Vanity Fair and The New Yorker, could possibly give us the truth. Tina knew Diana personally and has far-reaching insight into the royals and the Queen.
In The Diana Chronicles, you will meet a formidable female cast and understand as never before the society that shaped them. Among them are Diana's sexually charged mother, her bad-girl sister-in-law, Fergie, and, most formidable of them all, her mother-in-law, the Queen. Add Camilla Parker Bowles, the ultimate "other woman", into this combustible mix, and it's no wonder that Diana broke out of her royal cage into celebrity culture, where she found her own power and used it to devastating effect.

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 the defining benchmarks in history - an event that touched each of us so profoundly we will never forget the moment we heard the news. Twenty years after the Paris car crash that ended Diana's life at age 36, the story of her remarkable life and tragic death still have the power to mesmerize. Following her storybook wedding to Prince Charles, she had evolved from "Shy Di" into the most famous person in the world.

Her picture-perfect life—living in Boston, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon, raising their beautiful son, Asher—was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined that she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown, living in the house she grew up in and taking over her father’s beekeeping business. Lily Campanello is familiar with do-overs, too. When she and her mom relocate to Adams, New Hampshire, for her final year of high school, they both hope it will be a fresh start.

As a member of Scotland Yard's elite Royalty Protection Department, Inspector Ken Wharfe was personal protection officer - in other words, bodyguard - to the late Diana, Princess of Wales, during the years that saw the final breakdown of her marriage and her separation from Prince Charles. In that time he became a close friend and trusted confidant who shared her most private moments. His intimate firsthand account provides an affectionate, if not always uncritical, insight into this complex, troubled, but ultimately deeply fascinating woman.

Franklin Delano Roosevelt was arguably the greatest figure of the 20th century. While FDR's official circle was predominantly male, it was his relationships with women - particularly with Lucy Mercer Rutherfurd - that most vividly bring to light the human being beneath this towering statesman.

They were confidantes to British prime ministers, poets, writers, and artists, their lives entwined with the most celebrated and scandalous figures of the day, from Oscar Wilde to Henry James. They were the lovers of great men - or men of great prominence... They lived in a world of luxurious excess, a world of splendor at 44 Belgrave Square and later at the even more vast Clouds, the exquisite Wiltshire house on 4,000 acres, the "house of the age", designed in 1876 by the visionary architect Philip Webb - the model for Henry James' The Spoils of Poynton.

Where were you the day Diana died? Like the assassination of John F.

Twenty years after the Paris car crash that ended Diana's life at age 36, the story of her remarkable life and tragic death still have the power to mesmerize. Following her storybook wedding to Prince Charles, she had evolved from "Shy Di" into the most famous person in the world.

As a member of Scotland Yard's elite Royalty Protection Department, Inspector Ken Wharfe was personal protection officer - in other words, bodyguard - to the late Diana, Princess of Wales, during the years that saw the final breakdown of her marriage and her separation from Prince Charles. In that time he became a close friend and trusted confidant who shared her most private moments. His intimate firsthand account provides an affectionate, if not always uncritical, insight into this complex, troubled, but ultimately deeply fascinating woman.

Outstanding insight
Tina Brown has done an outstanding job here, taking us deep inside of Diana's world to get the full and complete picture of the world she lived in; the people surrounding her. Her betrayals, her flaws, her loves. I did not expect to gain such insight into not only Diana, but almost all of the other players surrounding her. Charles, Camilla, Diana's parents and siblings, close friends, etc.
At one point, when it got to the part about Diana's death and what was unfolding before and during and after those hours, I completely did not expect to, but I actually cried. A very powerfully written book that gives you a complete understanding of Diana, the people and the circumstances around her, but no matter all of their flaws (including Diana's) the tragic ending still breaks your heart.

Finally learned something new..best Diana book out there!
Such a thoroughly researched book, that actually offers up new details and insights I’ve never seen shared before, and I’ve read almost all of the books and biographies, and watched every documentary I could find on this subject..even the conspiracy ones that are nonsense, and I thought there was nothing left to learn or uncover, until I listened to this book! The author stays very neutral, not always just in favor of the Princess, so you get the real and raw truth of Diana, which I’ve never seen done before and greatly appreciated the research that was done, and the experiences that were shared. The narrator does an excellent job with her delivery as well. Buy the book, you definitely won’t regret it.

One of the best Diana's
Would you listen to The Diana Chronicles again? Why?
I will keep and treasure this. It is great insight to one of my most favorite women.
What did you like best about this story?
I liked the look inside the cast of characters. Not only Diana's but other's important in her life. The Queen, Prince Phillip and Prince Charles changed my minds about them for the better, and others for worse..
What does Rosalyn Landor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Her voice is wonderful, crisp and easy to listen to. I know I have heard her read before. Excellent!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, and some sections I listened more than once.
Any additional comments?
One of the very best books on Diana.

Fascinating Account of Diana’s Life
I had just finished the new book "The Palace Papers" and enjoyed it greatly. I decided to get this book as well. A definitive biography of the late Princess of Wales, it explores her family, history and all the behind the scenes palace intrigue, good, bad and ugly. It was riveting and I couldn't stop listening. Narrator Roslyn Landor's beautiful British accent relates the events superbly. A must read/listen for royal watchers and Diana lovers.

This is one of the best books I have read that shows the strengths and weaknesses of all members of the royal family and the British upper class. If only they could have supported one another in their strengths, instead of destroying one another in their weaknesses.

Juicy and Sad
What did you love best about The Diana Chronicles?
The unvarnished truth about the 19 year old English girl that I idolized and envied. Be careful what you wish for, especially when you are in your teens.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Snarchasm
What does Rosalyn Landor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
The spot on English accents.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Unhappily ever after.
Any additional comments?

Fair, detailed, and heartfelt.
This is by far the best book I have personally read about the late Princess of Wales. It takes the reader through the entire saga that captivated the world of the 80's and 90's. It is honest and quite balanced, and cuts Diana no more slack than any of the other players of this most talked about marriage of the 20th century. After completion, i am left with the comstant sadness that was Diana's lot in life, and a great deal of respect for the Pince of Wales I had never had. I truly believe after listening to this book, that this marriage may have actually had a chance were it not for the continually overbearing circumstances these two encountered. And on a deeper level, am left with the feeling that they both retained a genuine tenderness for each other. They were both loving, they were both spiteful, they were both human beings.
