A Commemorative Tribute
On August 31, 1997, the world was stunned by the tragic death of the most popular and photographed woman of the modern age: Diana, Princess of Wales. As millions struggled to take in this devastating news, tributes began to flood in to this warm compassionate and beautiful woman: Queen of Hearts, People's Princess and twentieth-century icon. The strength of public grief had no precedent in history: people came to London from all over the globe to pay their final respects to this unique woman. Queues to sign the books of condolence stretched for miles from Diana's resting place at St James's Palace, with people lining up through the night to dedicate their memories to the much-loved Princess.
A thoughtful look at the life of Diana from ITN, Britain's foremost newsgathering organisation, 'Diana: The People's Princess' commemorates this remarkable woman's life from early childhood to her premature death at the age of 36.
'Diana: The People's Princess' is a book that everyone who loved the Princess will want to treasure. Respectful and poignant, it is a fitting tribute to this elegant, charming and sympathetic symbol of our times.
