The royal insider: my life with the queen, the king and Princess Diana
by Paul Burrell
On the shelf? Just pop in.
For over two decades, Paul Burrell was a silent witness to the making of history - first as footman to Queen Elizabeth II, then as butler to King Charles III (then Prince of Wales), and, most famously, as a confidante of the late Princess Diana. Now, with a unique perspective shaped by time and change, he's ready to share his own story alongside theirs. His bestselling memoir, 'A Royal Duty', about his friendship with Diana, sent shockwaves around the world, selling over two million copies. But it is only now, in the wake of the Queen's passing and the commencement of a new royal era, as well as his own personal journey, Burrell feels he can tell his story in full. In this deeply personal and intimate memoir, Burrell shares many untold stories of his life at home and abroad with the Royals.
