Synopsis: The newly minted American version of The Palace Diaries is an hilarious, light-hearted look at life behind the scenes of the Royal Establishment with extra spicy material, unseen as yet in Europe. Sarah Goodall spent twelve years working for Prince Charles as Lady Clerk from 1988 to 2000, the period during which his marriage to Princess of Wales broke down amid a frenzy of media attention. But this is not another examination of the failed Royal marriage. Rather, it is the story of a rather naïve and accident-prone young woman whose dreams all came true when she was given the opportunity to work for the heir to the throne. The Palace Diaries is an entertaining romp of a read, which will delight and intrigue in equal measure. Priority Mail shipping for this item costs $7.00 at the request of the buyer.
