William and Harry Summary

William and Harry: The People's Princes by Ingrid Seward

From the day they were born, Prince William and Prince Harry have been the focus of attention in Britain and around the world. Their parents' fairytale wedding, followed swiftly by the arrival of two sons, seemed like the perfect happy ending. Growing up in Highgrove and at Kensington Palace, the two young princes were successfully sheltered from the pressures that drove their parents apart and, ultimately, led to their divorce. Following the tragically early death of their mother, Diana, William and Harry attracted massive public sympathy, a sentiment that still attaches to them to this day. But as well as sympathy, the public now respects them as outgoing, hard-working and competent young men, who have honoured their mother's legacy in their charity work and in their determination to protect her memory. The world has also seen that their relationship with their father is a loving and happy one, and that in this, at least, the Royal family appears to have learnt a lesson from Diana.As they move into their adult roles - whether in the form of official Royal duties or those on the front line, fighting alongside their fellow countrymen - they are both developing into a new breed of Royal, as much at home organising a pop concert or taking a gap year in Africa or South America, as they are at State occasions or in full regimental dress uniform.

William and Harry Reviews

""Combines a wealth of lively behind the scenes reporting with [an] interesting analysis of the ways in which the public and private aspects of this unhappy story mesh."

About Ingrid Seward

Ingrid Seward has been writing about the royal family for 17 years since becoming editor of Majesty magazine in 1983 and she is internationally acknowledged as a leading expert in the field. Diana: Portrait of a Princess; By Royal Invitation; Royalty Revealed; Sarah, Duchess of York; Royal Children of the 20th Century; Prince Edward, The Last Great Edwardian; Lady: The Life and Style of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother; and The Queen and Di have kept her in the bestselling lists over the past 12 years, and she is in the unique position of being able to write about her subjects while knowing many of them personally. Ingrid Seward makes regular television appearances in the UK, Australia and North America and commented on the funeral of Diana, Princess of Wales for CBS television with Dan Rather and Professor David Starkey.
