That she was a single mother leaving behind two emotionally vulnerable sons made Diana's death at thirty-six all the more heartbreaking.</p>Four years after Diana's death, Prince William and his brother Prince Harry -- "the heir and the spare," as Fleet Street dubbed them -- are the planet's two most -- photographed, written-about, and speculated-about young men. People everywhere feel an intense affection for Wills and Harry, and wonder if, without their mother to guide them, they are withering or flourishing in the House of Windsor.</p>In this much-anticipated sequel to his <i>New York Times</i> #1 bestseller <i>The Day Diana Died,</i> Christopher Andersen draws on important sources -- many of whom have agreed to speak here for the first time -- to paint this sympathetic yet often startling portrait of William and Harry, and reveal how their mother remains a constant presence in their lives. Among the revelations:</p><li>New details about the hours and days after they lost their mother, how they coped in the wake of the tragedy, and who William blames for the crash that killed Diana.</li></ul></p><li>How the young princes were caught in the crossfire of their parents' tempestuous, often brutal marriage, and what impact that continues to have on them as young men.</li></ul></p><li>The behind-the-scenes maneuvering by the Queen to mold her grandsons in the Windsor image, and to what extent she has succeeded or failed.</li></ul></p><li>Camilla's growing role in the boys' lives, her secret pledge to Charles's sons, and whether they would accept her as their stepmother.</li></ul></p><li>The disturbing influence of William's friends -- including rebellious, drug-abusing aristocrats -- and the Palace's fight to keep them from leading the future king astray.</li></ul></p><li>The undisclosed threats on the princes' lives and the recurring nightmare that still haunts William.</li></ul></p><li>Harry's story -- his hopes, dreams, and fears as he struggles with life in the shadow of his brother.</li></ul></p><li>The women in William's life and what he has confided he wants in a future queen.</li></ul></p><i>Diana's Boys</i> is more than the first comprehensive biography of the world's two most celebrated royals. Just as Andersen's bestsellers <i>Jack and Jackie, Jackie After Jack,</i> and <i>The Day John Died</i> allowed us to once again experience Camelot, readers will relive the tender relationship between Diana and her spirited offspring. This is the story of a mother who died too young and the children who are her living legacy.</p> 1540354 1 8 2001 Diana's Boys: William and Harry and the Mother They Loved total:35|5:8|4:12|3:12|2:2|1:1| 35 129 51 2 4 0 false false Mon Feb 11 14:30:06 -0800 2008 Mon Feb 11 14:35:52 -0800 2008 more...]]> 3 0 false false Fri Aug 29 21:59:58 -0700 2008 Fri Aug 29 22:00:17 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Mon Nov 02 00:26:28 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 02 00:26:28 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sun Oct 04 16:09:46 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 04 16:09:46 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Sep 13 07:11:11 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 13 07:11:11 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Aug 27 09:20:47 -0700 2009 Thu Aug 27 09:20:47 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri Aug 21 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 30 19:15:35 -0700 2009 Fri Aug 21 22:09:18 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Mon Jul 27 06:38:07 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 27 06:38:07 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Jul 20 14:43:15 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 20 14:43:15 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Jul 17 08:03:44 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 17 08:03:44 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Jul 12 16:42:43 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 12 16:42:43 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Jul 09 17:51:39 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 23 09:04:16 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sat Jul 04 21:09:14 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 04 21:09:14 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Jun 04 06:12:51 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 04 06:12:55 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Wed May 27 14:05:28 -0700 2009 Wed May 27 14:05:32 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed May 27 13:14:24 -0700 2009 Wed May 27 13:14:24 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat May 16 11:26:00 -0700 2009 Sat May 16 11:26:00 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Fri May 15 12:19:20 -0700 2009 Fri May 15 12:19:20 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Apr 27 15:02:04 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 27 15:02:04 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sat Apr 18 03:40:07 -0700 2009 Sat Apr 18 03:40:07 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=1548026
