About This Book
When Andrew Morton's world-famous biography, Diana: Her True Story, was first
published, it caused a media frenzy, severely jolted the royal family and the
Palace hierarchy, and shook the British Establishment to its foundations. Later
revealed as having been written with the Princess's full cooperation, this world
bestseller is now seen as the nearest thing to her official biography. Yet it
was not the full story, nor could it have been, given the circumstances at the
time. This is even more apparent in the light of events that have occurred since
her death and which have been played out under the harsh gaze of the media, once
again catapulting Diana's name back into the spotlight. Figures such as her
sometime lover James Hewitt, her butler, Paul Burrell - whose aborted trial for
theft of the Princess's property in 2002 was followed by publication of his own
kiss-and-tell memoir, causing a sensation in the fall of 2003 - and Prince
Charles's valet Michael Fawcett have emerged. In addition, intriguing comments
that Diana made to Morton in taped conversations, and which have never been
published, become supremely important in the light of subsequent events.
Friends, advisors and colleagues, interviewed now, six years after her death,
feel a far greater freedom in speaking of her than they once did. In what is
bound to be seen as the most definitive study of the Princess in the most
crucial period of her short life, Andrew Morton - the biographer she herself
chose - provides the last word on one of the most admired, influential and
best-loved figures of our era. At long last, Diana: In Pursuit Of Love makes
sense of the tragic Princess's life as she changed from downtrodden wife and
reluctant royal into a self-confident and independent modern woman, an icon of
the twenty-first century and, indeed, a 'queen in people's hearts'.
