Soon to be the subject of a major motion picture starring Naomi Watts as the Princess of WalesAn icon remembered in death as vividly as she appeared in life; Diana; Princess of Wales; is one of the most enduring personalities of the twentieth century-and one of the most enigmatic. With exclusive access to all those closest to Diana; Sarah Bradford now casts aside the gossip and lies and takes us to the very heart of the royal family to separate the myth from the truth of the Diana years. With the authority missing from previous accounts; as well as remarkable new sources; Diana delivers a complex and explosive look at a woman who continues to fascinate.

I have read more than a few books; and this is certainly one of the better books about the Hermit Kingdom.The tack of this book is two stories; one about Kim; the founder of North Korea and No; the "moolah man" that delivered a Mig-15 to the West during the Korean War. But really this book is not about so much those events but the related history in between.I found the book so very compelling. Both stories are fascinating and worthwhile. I think the value is reaching an understanding of both the promise of America and why North Korea fears and uses America as an all-purpose bogeyman.Well worth reading.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good read...something different about NKBy BrianI'm mildly obsessed with the DPRK. There actually aren't a ton of books out there about Kim Il-Sung. This gave an interesting account of his history and thus that of NK that was not dry nor was it overly opinionated. The idea to parallel that history with that of "Kenneth Rowe" was a great idea and this was truly a unique read (even as far as DPRK books go). I was actually surprised at how much I liked this book. A lot of books on NK read the same and tread the same few facts.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. The Great Mig GiveawayBy elius yanakisI have finally finished the Book of No or how do “I give away a Mig� No’s tenacity and his scruples seem to me as the real story.He was brow beat by his own and manipulated by Americans yet he stayed on a path that eventually made him part of the American Middle class. The Mig was incidental to the real story. His brush with his country and his interaction with America seemed to be similar. He had no real friends but he remained true to himself. Maybe his mom helped. I guess I take it as a lesson in "being true to your school" Unless one has the disposition of constancy; changing sides in war is iffy.
