Publishers Cashing In on Tenth Anniversary of Diana's Death

-- Library Journal, 05/02/2007

The Wall Street Journal reports that publishers are lining up to make a buck off the tenth anniversary of Princess Diana's death. Leading the pack is Random House with Tina Brown's The Diana Chronicles, in which the British columnist and former editor of Vanity Fair reportedly paints her subject as a much different character than the fairy tale princess pushed by the press. Other titles run the gamut from Larry King's The People's Princess (Crown) in July to Colin McDowell's Diana Style (St. Martin's) in August, which focuses on her wardrobe and influence on fashion.
