The Making of a Royal Romance: William, Kate, and Harry--A Look Behind the Palace Walls (A revised and expanded edition of William and Harry: Behind the Palace Walls) Overview

William and Harry was an overnight sensation when it was published a week before Prince William and Kate Middleton’s engagement announcement in November 2010. Now the author, a royal insider and the royal correspondent for The Daily Mail, has updated and added crucial material that completes the story of the fairytale romance. In addition to providing fascinating insight into the lives and loves of two young men who are very much in the public spotlight worldwide, this updated version now becomes the definitive book that brings their story—and that of Kate Middleton, the future Queen Catherine—up to date.

 

With a new preface, an epilogue, and two new chapters, the author now fully reveals the secret marriage pact that William and Kate have had for several years, dispelling the notion that Kate Middleton has been “Waity Katie.” It paints a portrait of Kate by looking back at her family and childhood, her close friends and former boyfriends, and her ever-present devotion to the love of her life, Prince William. It reveals the domestic life that the two have been living in Wales, and provides a look at what the future holds for their new commitment. The epilogue focuses on the wedding preparations.

 

The book will be the most authoritative and entertaining guide to the royal family’s most widely anticipated public event since the wedding of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles.

Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia

Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia Review

This is an excellent book for Westerners to read if they have had no prior experience with Muslim countries and the Muslim faith. Even though the actual circumstances of the book may or may not be real, the essence of the book conveys many truths about Muslim countries and the Muslim way of life. Too often, we accuse ourselves of being too quick to judge or unjustly viewing the Muslim countries and not giving them the understanding that we give to their Western counterparts. But this book illustrates through live examples that Muslim is not not just a religion, but a culture and a belief system, which is rooted in backwardness, violence, and unbelievable chauvinism, and clearly explains why nearly all Muslim countries are not necessarily prepared to join their modern counterparts on an equal footing on today's global stage. As such, we cannot expect to deal with Muslims from our own Western vantage point nor expect them to adhere to our system of beliefs in humanity, righteousness or justice. Situations in this book are very real, whether or not they are actually related to the Saudi royal family, and happen in Muslim countries all over the world every day. Understanding the different world view and values of Muslims and the set of beliefs from which they operate helps to explain the many shocking political and social incidents that have taken place over the past decade or more that the average Westerner reading the news simply cannot comprehend. I would make this required reading for anyone, and especially any young girl or woman contemplating a relationship with or marriage to a man of the Muslim faith.

Princess: A True Story of Life Behind the Veil in Saudi Arabia Overview

PRINCES: A TRUE STORY OF LIFE BEHIND THE VEIL IN SAUDI ARABIA describes the life of Princess Sultana Al Sa'ud, a princess in the royal house of Saudi Arabia. Hidden behind her black veil, she is a prisoner, jailed by her father, her husband, and her country.

Sultana tells of appalling oppressions, everyday occurrences that in any other culture would be seen as shocking human rights violations: thirteen-year-old girls forced to marry men five times their age, young women killed by drowning, stoning, or isolation in the "women's room."

PRINCESS is a testimony to a woman of indomitable spirit and courage, and you will never forget her or her Muslim sisters.
