**New York Times Bestseller**USA Today Bestseller**The Sunday Times Bestseller**The Globe and Mail Bestseller**ABA Indie Bestseller**The Times (UK) Memoir of the Year**One of Newsweek's Most Anticipated Books of 2020**An extraordinary memoir of drama, tragedy, and royal secrets by Anne Glenconner--a close member of the royal circle and lady-in-waiting to Princess Margaret. As seen on Netflix's The Crown.
Anne Glenconner has been at the center of the royal circle from childhood, when she met and befriended the future Queen Elizabeth II and her sister, the Princess Margaret. Though the firstborn child of the 5th Earl of Leicester, who controlled one of the largest estates in England, as a daughter she was deemed "the greatest disappointment" and unable to inherit. Since then she has needed all her resilience to survive court life with her sense of humor intact. A unique witness to landmark moments in royal history, Maid of Honor at Queen Elizabeth's coronation, and a lady in waiting to Princess Margaret until her death in 2002, Anne's life has encompassed extraordinary drama and tragedy. In Lady in Waiting, she will share many intimate royal stories from her time as Princess Margaret's closest confidante as well as her own battle for survival: her broken-off first engagement on the basis of her "mad blood"; her 54-year marriage to the volatile, unfaithful Colin Tennant, Lord Glenconner, who left his fortune to a former servant; the death in adulthood of two of her sons; a third son she nursed back from a six-month coma following a horrific motorcycle accident. Through it all, Anne has carried on, traveling the world with the royal family, including visiting the White House, and developing the Caribbean island of Mustique as a safe harbor for the rich and famous-hosting Mick Jagger, David Bowie, Raquel Welch, and many other politicians, aristocrats, and celebrities. With unprecedented insight into the royal family, Lady in Waiting is a witty, candid, dramatic, at times heart-breaking personal story capturing life in a golden cage for a woman with no inheritance.

NOT puncture proof as advertised
Horrible. I had purchased other EZ squeakers by Pet Lou (veggie series) and they have lasted over a year, the dog LOVED these new ones with the fluffy tail, however they punctured the squeaker within hours and they don't make noise now. VERY disappointed. want to return, but its used.

It was a little too stiff for my dog to be able to get to squeak and the tail hairs came off too easily. This ones gonna be a no for me.

very good quality.
This was the second one we ordered as our Yorkie loves playing with them. It has the noise maker inside and he bites right on it to make it squeak, loves it. Fast shipping, as before, very good quality.

My Poodle loves this !
Squeaker is fun and sturdy ! My 15 lb Poodle loves it. (His favorite toy) The toys material held up about two weeks before the white stuffing started coming out. I would pay a couple dollars more for a better cover. I have purchased several ... they all last about the same .
