This volume examines the life, public image, and humanitarian legacy of Diana, Princess of Wales, through an authorized lens provided by her estate. Rosalind Coward synthesizes archival records and personal accounts to construct a comprehensive record of the Princess's influence on the British monarchy and global charity. The work utilizes a curated selection of photography and documentation to illustrate the evolution of her public persona and private commitments. By framing the narrative through the lens of the Memorial Fund, the text emphasizes the enduring impact of her humanitarian efforts.

The text functions as a formal, authorized record that prioritizes a curated visual and biographical narrative of the subject's life. Its reliance on estate-sanctioned materials suggests a focus on preserving a specific public legacy rather than providing an independent critical analysis.
