I was browsing through a bookstore this morning and came across a small volume perhaps some of you have read; "Doomed Queens," by Kris Waldherr.

I immediately thumbed to the back and found a two page write up on Diana.  It gave the basics of her public life.  I was gratified to see the author refer to her as (paraphrasing) Charles's broodmare.  That has always been my opinion.  But the passage that really caught my eye was the one line message of advice at the end of the chapter:

QuoteAvoid men with cameras and Camillas 
Amen!

Ha!
