Diana Remembered: 1961-1997

This is a book which I truly liked for many, many reasons. First, for all die-hard Diana fans, like myself, it covers every aspect of her life. Second, there are are selections about Diana, Princess of Wales, which are not long, but get to the point. Third, each story is accompanied by beautiful pictures of Diana. Last, but probably best of all, the book was put together by people who covered her services and, unlike so many others, donated all royalties from the sales of the book to the DIANA MEMORIAL APPEAL."W. F. Deedes has had a long association with the DAILY TELEGRAPH as writer, columnist and former editor, and was a personal friend of the Princess.""The contributors of this book Sandra Barwick, Caroline Davies, Elizabeth Grice and Colin Randall are all senior staff journalists on the DAILY TELEGRAPH and were part of the reporting team covering the events in the aftermath of the death of Diana, Princess of Wales."I shall close with a few of my favorite quotaions from the book. "Her beauty was her triumph, her mark of courage and her ability to accommodate her own sorrows. That, instinctively and perhaps subconciously, is why people loved her: because she had come throught and in the process had grown into someone quite different and much larger than the person she had been before. In some ways some of us have never recognised before, we loved her." ADAM NICHOLSON in the TELEGRAPH. page 117."You could not do my work and I could not do yours. We are both working for God. Let us both do something beautiful for Him." MOTHER TERESA page 118."I want to walk into a room, be it a hospital for the dying or a hospital for sick children and feel that I am needed. I want to do, not just to be." DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES, page 118."If I should die and leave you here awhile,/ Be not like others, sore undone who keep/ Long vigils by the silent dust and weep./ For my sake - turn again to life and smile,/ Nerving thy heart and trembling hand to do/ Something to comfort other hearts than thine/ Complete those dear unfinished tasks of mine/ And I, perchance, may therein comfort you."/ A poem by A. PRICE HUGHES which was read at Diana's funeral by her sister LADY SARAH McCORQUODALE. page 120.This is a hardback book which consist of 120 pages and measures 9"x111/4".

This book is filled with many large color photos showing the happy times in the life of the Princess of Wales. For true blue Diana fans the pictures have all been seen before but are of high quality and worth seeing again. The text is done so that every part of her life is looked at ( even her final resting place ). None of the writtings are very long and all done by different writters who knew and liked her. The book ends with qutoes about Diana, some even made by herself. Overall this a good book, one that any Diana fan would like to own. It should also be noted that all royalties from the book go to the Diana Memorial Appeal which helps victims of anti-personnel mines( a cause she loved to help).

THIS BOOK PAYS TRIBUTE TO THE WONDERFUL PRINCESS OF WALES, PRINCESS DIANA. I THINK THIS BOOK IS A GOOD BOOK TO READ. IT EXERCISES YOUR MIND, AND YOU ARE ABLE TO READ FREELY. IT'S NOT LIKE OTHER BOOKS WHERE YOU WANT TO TAKE BREAKS ALL THE TIME. NO THIS BOOK, YOU NEVER WANT TO PUT IT DOWN.
