Paperback. Zustand: Good. The definitive account of the romance, marriage, and enduring bond between Prince William and Kate Middleton, told by #1 New York Times bestselling author Christopher Andersen and updated with a new chapter and photographs marking the birth of their son, Prince George of Cambridge. Destined from the beginning to become one of the most celebrated unions of the 21st century, William and Kate forged a love story shaped by privilege and pressure, devotion and sacrifice. He was the charismatic prince raised in the shadow of tragedy and duty; she was the confident, grounded young woman who won his heart and earned the respect of a global public. Drawing on deep reporting and insider insight, Andersen reveals the private moments behind their famously guarded relationship--from their early days as university students, through public breakups and reconciliations, to the forces that tested their commitment and ultimately strengthened it. The book explores William's lifelong bond with his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, the intense scrutiny surrounding Kate's transformation into a future queen, and the challenges posed by royal tradition, scandal, and expectation. Part fairy tale, part family drama, and part political portrait of the modern monarchy, William and Kate is ultimately the story of two people who found each other against extraordinary odds--and whose love reshaped the future of Britain's royal family.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Together, Bill and Hillary Clinton scaled the heights of power and prestige, only to have his wantonly reckless behaviour bring them to the brink of personal and political ruin. Despite the billions of words that have been written about Bill and Hillary, the true nature of their relationship has remained a jealously guarded secret. This book explores what really goes on in the private residence at the White House and includes details of Bill and Hillary's courtship; the hundreds of women in Bill's life (from Barbra Streisand to Monica) - and how Hillary has handled them; the heartbreaking toll the President's self-destructive acts have taken on both women, his wife, and daughter Chelsea. It also examines the roles that sex, money, power, lies and scandal have played in the making and unmaking of the Clinton legacy. Yet whatever the judgement of history, the continuing saga of Bill and Hillary is shown as - above all else - a love story.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. "I don't quit. I keep going." -Hillary Rodham Clinton She is, quite simply, the most famous, most complex, most loved/hated/admired/reviled woman -- perhaps person -- in America. And, whether she fulfills her life's ambition or not, she can already lay claim to being the first woman ever considered a serious contender for the presidency. From the beginning, there have been the inevitable comparisons to Argentina's legendary Eva Perón. Sex, power, money, lies, scandal, tragedy, and betrayal were the things that defined the lives of both women. Yet most of what we know about Hillary Rodham Clinton is seen in the context of her tumultuous marriage to the 42nd President. Now a power in the Senate, Hillary waits for the right moment to make her own run for the White House. In the style of his #l New York Times bestsellers The Day Diana Died and The Day John Died, as well as Jack and Jackie, Jackie After Jack, George and Laura and Sweet Caroline, Christopher Andersen draws on important sources -- many speaking here for the first time -- to paint a startling portrait of America's most controversial woman. Among the revelations: How U.S. history has been shaped -- and will continue to be shaped -- by the arrangement between Hillary and Bill known as "The Plan." Important new details about the role Hillary played in the scandalous eleventh hour pardons of armed radicals, drug dealers, tax cheats, embezzlers, money launderers and more. How the outgoing First Lady registered like a bride at a gift store and left the White House with $400,000 worth of "gifts" belonging to the American people. How JFK Jr. almost thwarted her Senate plans. New details about Hillary's relationship with Vince Foster. How Hillary has coped with Bill's hundreds of affairs, and the new women in her husband's life. What Martha Stewart did for Hillary, and how Hillary repaid her. How Hillary is using the 2004 elections as a springboard to her own future presidential candidacy--regardless of who wins. Whatever the ultimate judgment of history, the ongoing saga of Hillary Clinton's inexorable rise to power continues to stir passions, and to make her the American Evita.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. "Funny, I don't feel like a legend." -- Barbra Streisand She is a one-name legend, a global icon, the ultimate diva. Yet most of what we know about Barbra Joan Streisand is the stuff of caricature: the Brooklyn girl made good, the ugly duckling who blossomed into a modern-day Nefertiti, the political dilettante driving to the barricades in her Rolls-Royce, the Oscar-winning actress and bona fide movie mogul, the greatest female singer who ever lived, a skinflint, a philanthropist, a connoisseur and a barbarian, the woman whose physical characteristics are instantly identifiable around the planet -- the tapered nails, those slightly crossed eyes, that nose, the voice. Even to the multitudes around the world who idolize her, Streisand remains aloof, unknowable, tantalizingly beyond reach. Until now. In the manner of his #l New York Times bestsellers The Day Diana Died and The Day John Died as well as Jack and Jackie, Jackie After Jack, An Affair to Remember, and Sweet Caroline, Christopher Andersen taps into important sources -- eyewitnesses to Streisand's remarkable life and career -- to paint a startling portrait of the artist . . . and the woman. Among the revelations: Surprising new details about her wedding and marriage to James Brolin. New information about her many failed love affairs, including her never-before-revealed relationships with Prince Charles and Princess Diana's doomed lover Dodi Fayed -- as well as Warren Beatty, Ryan O'Neal, former Canadian prime minister Pierre Trudeau, Steve McQueen, Richard Gere, Kris Kristofferson, Don Johnson, Jon Voight, Andre Agassi, newsman Peter Jennings, and more . . . A provocative inside account of what really went on between Streisand and Bill Clinton in the White House, what their relationship is like today, and how Hillary feels about Barbra. From Funny Girl and The Way We Were to Yentl and The Prince of Tides -- and in the recording sessions that produced some of the biggest hits in music history -- new behind-the-scenes details of the brilliance, the obsessive drive for perfection, and the Callas-sized ego. New insights into Barbra's relationship with her only child, Jason. Whether you love her, hate her, or are simply spellbound by her titanic talent, Barbra is one thing above all others: a true American original.…
