It may look easy on television and Jennie Bond,the BBC's royal correspondent, certainly gives the impression of being serenely in control as she broadcasts from outside Buckingham Palace.But behind the scenes,her life reporting on the hottest stories of the past decade has been anything but calm. Here,Jennie relives those turbulent years with the royal family and tells us what it's really like to be at the hub of it all.It's a story told from the correspondent's point of view,describing the pressures of working under constant deadlines and being permanently on call.It takes us inside the Palace walls on the day Charles and Diana separated.It portrays the panic of learning that Windsor Castle was on fire and of witnessing an apparent assassination attempt on Prince Charles in Sydney. Jennie also reveals details of the lengthy one-to-one conversations she had with Diana,Princess of Wales,in her private apartment at Kensington Palace.She recalls the trauma of the night the Princess died - and of the week that followed,during which she broadcast almost non-stop. 'Reporting Royalty' is the inside story of the dramas and difficulties of covering many of the events which have dominated the headlines in recent years.And it describes vividly how Jennie Bond has managed to combine a high-profile career with being a wife and mother.Her up-to-the-minute book is a terrific read that guarantees you'll never think of royal reporting in the same way again.See also rja487014 for another similar SIGNED example.
