After a childhood spent on Hollywood film sets, Meghan Markle fought hard for stardom.

Their whirlwind romance culminated with Meghan’s ultimate fairy tale ending: their 2018 wedding at Windsor Castle. Finally, the world was her stage. It seemed that the dizzying success of the wedding between the new Duke and Duchess of Sussex marked the beginning of a fresh era for the British Royal Family.

For seventy years, Queen Elizabeth ruled over an institution and a family. She was constant in her desire to provide a steady presence and to be a trustworthy steward of the British people and the Commonwealth. In the face of her uncle’s abdication, in the uncertainty of the Blitz, and in the tentative exposure of her family and private life to the public via the press, Elizabeth became synonymous with the crown. In The New Royals, journalist Katie Nicholl provides a nuanced look at Elizabeth’s remarkable and unrivalled reign.

In The Diana Chronicles, you will meet a formidable female cast and understand as never before the society that shaped them: among them, Diana's sexually charged mother, her bad-girl sister-in-law, Fergie, and, most formidable of them all, her mother-in-law, the Queen. Add Camilla Parker-Bowles, the ultimate "other woman" into this combustible mix, and it's no wonder that Diana broke out of her royal cage into celebrity culture, where she found her own power and used it to devastating effect.

The life of Princess May of Teck is one of the great Cinderella stories in history. From a family of impoverished nobility, she was chosen by Queen Victoria as the bride for her eldest grandson, the scandalous Duke of Clarence, heir to the throne, who died mysteriously before their marriage. Despite this setback, she became queen, mother of two kings, grandmother of the current queen, and a lasting symbol of the majesty of the British throne.

He was born into an ancient powerful dynasty and, through no fault of his own, became one of the most recognisable men on the planet. His life was a constant barrage of press intrusion and manipulation. Until finally, he demanded that it stop. In order to get the privacy he so craved, he has written a frostbite-and-all book that goes deep inside the castle walls and exposes every shouting match, fist-fight, betrayal, teddy bear, awkward hug and tear-stained wedding rehearsal for the world to feast their eyes on.

Publisher's summary
A balanced account of game changes, conflicts and ambitions. The fall from popular grace of the previously adulated brother of the heir to the British throne as a consequence of his marriage to a beautiful and dynamic Hollywood starlet of colour makes for fascinating listening in best-selling royal author Lady Colin Campbell's balanced account.
Lady Colin knows her royal history and psychology, and as the first seven years of her adult life were spent in the USA, she has a foot in both the American and British camps. With unique breadth of insight she goes behind the scenes, speaking to friends, relations, courtiers, and colleagues on both sides of the Atlantic to reveal the most unexpected royal story since the Abdication.
She highlights the dilemmas involved and the issues that lurk beneath the surface, as to why the couple decided to step down as senior royals. She analyses the implications of the actions of a young and ambitious couple in love with each other and with the empowering lure of fame and fortune.
She leads the listener through the maze of contradictions, revealing how Californian culture has influenced the couple's conduct. She exposes how they tried and failed to change the royal system by adapting it to their own needs and ambitions and, upon failing, how they decided to create a new system altogether.

Admired, almost worshipped, a forceful presence in society and fashion and a devoted mother, she was also plagued by rumor and scandal throughout her brief life. Using exclusive new interviews and eyewitness testimony, Sarah Bradford now casts aside the gossip and lies to separate myth from truth.

Heiresses: Surely they are among the luckiest women on earth. Are they not to be envied, with their private jets and Chanel wardrobes and endless funds? Yet all too often those gilded lives have been beset with trauma and despair. Before the 20th century a wife’s inheritance was the property of her husband, making her vulnerable to kidnap, forced marriages, even confinement in an asylum. And in modern times, heiresses fell victim to fortune-hunters who squandered their millions.

Vicky, Alice, Helena, and Beatrice were historically unique sisters, born to a sovereign who ruled over a quarter of the earth's people and who gave her name to an era: Queen Victoria. Two of these princesses would themselves produce children of immense consequence. All five would curiously come to share many of the social restrictions and familial machinations borne by 19th-century women of less-exulted class.

Story
When Annette Gordon-Reed's groundbreaking study was first published, rumors of Thomas Jefferson's sexual involvement with his slave Sally Hemings had circulated for two centuries. Among all aspects of Jefferson's renowned life, it was perhaps the most hotly contested topic. Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings intensified this debate by identifying glaring inconsistencies in many noted scholars' evaluations of the existing evidence. In this study, Gordon-Reed assembles a fascinating and convincing argument that the evidence for the affair has been denied a fair hearing.

This epic work tells the story of the Hemingses, whose close blood ties to our third president had been systematically expunged from American history until very recently. Now, historian and legal scholar Annette Gordon-Reed traces the Hemings family from its origins in Virginia in the 1700s to the family's dispersal after Jefferson's death in 1826. It brings to life not only Sally Hemings and Thomas Jefferson but also their children and Hemings's siblings, who shared a father with Jefferson's wife, Martha.

Without a doubt, the name Jacqueline Kennedy draws multiple thoughts to mind. She is, perhaps, most well-known for her service as the first lady of the United States when her husband, John F. Kennedy, took office as the president, and for her role in restoring the White House. While she made major impacts on the White House, Jackie was much more than her title of first lady.

In order to get the privacy he so craved, he has written a frostbite-and-all book that goes deep inside the castle walls and exposes every shouting match, fist-fight, betrayal, teddy bear, awkward hug and tear-stained wedding rehearsal for the world to feast their eyes on.

His face is recognized the world over; his story is well known. But what is Prince William truly like? As Diana's eldest son, he was her confidant. While the tabloids eagerly lapped up the details of his parents' divorce, William lived though it, suffering the embarrassment and divided loyalties. He watched his father denounced on prime-time television; he met the lovers. And when he was just 15, his beautiful, loving mother was suddenly, shockingly snatched from his life forever. The nation lost its princess and its grief threatened the very future of the monarchy. What was almost forgotten in the clamor was that two small boys had lost their mother.

Meghan was 11 when she first advocated for women’s rights; a teenager when she worked in a soup kitchen feeding the homeless; a popular actress when she campaigned for clean water in Africa and passionately championed gender equality in a speech to a United Nations Women’s Conference. Even before she met Prince Harry, hers was an extraordinarily accomplished life. Meghan’s wedding to Harry was a joyful occasion, marking happiness at last for the Queen’s grandson who had captured our hearts 20 years earlier when he bravely walked behind his mother Diana’s coffin.

In the face of her uncle’s abdication, in the uncertainty of the Blitz, and in the tentative exposure of her family and private life to the public via the press, Elizabeth became synonymous with the crown. In The New Royals, journalist Katie Nicholl provides a nuanced look at Elizabeth’s remarkable and unrivalled reign.

We all keep secrets. 97 per cent of us are hiding a secret right now, and on average we each hold thirteen at any one time. They are the stuff of gossip, of novels and of classic dramas; secrets form a major part of our hidden inner lives. Podcaster Andrew Gold knows this better than anyone. A public persona, he found himself the (unwitting) recipient of hundreds of strangers' most private revelations. This set him on a journey to understand this critical part of our societies and lives. Why do we keep secrets? Why are we fascinated by those of others? What happens to our mind when we confess?

Enlightening
First and foremost I am not a MM fan. I find this book to be written in truth and depicts the facts better than I have read from others. It has also given me a better insight to how I thought of P Di. I was a fan of hers and this book made me look at things through British culture. I feel that MM is a egotistical person to the extreme and has enough smarts to fake the whole rest of her life. PH mistake was to fall in love with her. Thanks for more insight to there like since the got together

Well written and well narrated
This book gives a clear understanding of the problems between MM and the royal family. There's no sensationalism, just easy to understand examples of MM's unacceptable, unkind and self serving behavior. It's a good case study of a narcissist as well as a rather sad tale for those people left in MM's wake.

Love the reader!
I really really really wanted to like this book. I’m not a huge Megan or Harry fan, but this book seemed just rude. She gave Meghan the worst motives ever for any decision she ever made or thing she did. She repeatedly, and I mean, repeatedly, called Harry dumb or “lack in the intellect “and the main thesis was that Harry is too dumb to recognize that Megan is manipulating him. (Blow Job Harry). The author also CONSTANTLY picked at Meghan calling herself “classy” and having an instagram account. OH! Then a bunch of weird complaints on feminism, equal marriages, “woke”ness, etc.
There were far too many out-of-pocket slights like that to call this the “real” anything. If you want to hate on Meghan Markle & say “research says” this is the book for you!!
BUT!!!! I loved the reader’s voice so much I listened to the entire book and when I can’t sleep I put it on again. Mmmm.. I love it. 10 of 5 stars for the reader Lucinda Bell Howard.

Excellent Book
Great book. Very well written. Very engaging, insightful and entertaining. Lady C shares her opinions on many topics and always provides facts to support them, whether it's British press, British culture or British Royal history. The story of Meghan Markle is quite fascinating. We'll see how her life will unfold, but now I think I understand her much better than before, thanks to Lady C.

Megain
Great book!! Being from England, and living here and abroad, I welcomed Megan wholeheartedly along with everyone else, so happy that Harry found his true love. If you want to know the real Megan, listen to this book. However, it wasn’t long before she showed her true self. The dislike of Megan in England now isn’t because of her race, the majority of people were so happy for her to join the RF, but because of her plotting character. Megan was on the make from the very beginning. She is a narcissist, who was looking for a rich husband and found a lonely Prince and a Title! She was initially loved by the British people but, oh how we were fooled! This book is very accurate regarding Royal etiquette and protocol , which Megan despised. She adores her Duchess title and wields it like a sword. But, she didn’t like that she married the spare and was much less important in the hierarchy and therefore couldn’t call the shots. She was required to follow the direction of the Firm (Queen) who calls the shots. She was required to follow protocol and failed miserably. She has been “fact checked” over and over and found to be less than truthful in her claims and statements and has been a slanderous vindictive woman who quit after 18 months and returned to the U.S. because she didn’t like taking direction. Here in the states, with her married title as Duchess, she swans around like she’s something special and the Americans fell for it. Shame on her for trashing the royals, who welcomed her warmly, and tried over & over to give her opportunities, (The huge Commonwealth patronage) not normally awarded to a minor royal and tried to train her about Royal culture and expectations, Once she had that ring on her finger she rejected it all. Very accurate portrayal.

Enlightening!
Very interesting. excellent writing! My only criticism is that is that, in analysis of this pair, there was a good amount of repetition. But even so. good read !.
