Requests:  0 Summary:  The author of The Diana Chronicles takes readers inside the British royal family since the death of Princess Diana, showing the Queen's stoic resolve as family drama raged around her. "Never again" became Queen Elizabeth II's mantra shortly after Princess Diana's tragic death. More specifically, there could never be "another Diana"--a member of the family whose global popularity upstaged, outshone, and posed an existential threat to the British monarchy. Brown takes readers on a tour de force journey through the scandals, love affairs, power plays, and betrayals that have buffeted the monarchy over the last twenty-five years. We see the Queen's stoic resolve after the passing of Princess Margaret, the Queen Mother, and Prince Philip, her partner for seven decades, and how she triumphs in her Jubilee years even as family troubles rage around her. Brown explores Prince Charles's determination to make Camilla Parker Bowles his wife, the tension between William and Harry on "different paths," the ascendance of Kate Middleton, the downfall of Prince Andrew, and Harry and Meghan's stunning decision to step back as senior royals. Despite the fragile monarchy's best efforts, "never again" seems fast approaching. Picking up where Tina Brown's masterful The Diana Chronicles left off, The Palace Papers reveals how the royal family reinvented itself after the traumatic years when Diana's blazing celebrity ripped through the House of Windsor like a comet.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 941.08509 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Aina Haina Public Library Adult New Books 941.08509 Br Checked out 05/08/2024 Add Copy to MyList Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 941.08509 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 941.08509 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 941.08509 Brown Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 941.08509 Brown Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 941.08509 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 941.08509 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 941.08509 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 941.08509 Br Checked In   Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
