world. For all her fame, much of the<br />

human drama that swirled around her<br />

death remains veiled in intrigue. The<br />

author draws upon important sources,<br />

many of whom have agreed to speak<br />

here for the first time, to re-create the<br />

events leading up to that fateful night.<br />

BIO The Day John Died<br />

Andersen, Christopher<br />

LP-2372<br />

Retracing the life and tragic death of<br />

John Kennedy, Jr., this illustrated<br />

biography of an American icon begins<br />

and Daryl Hannah, his relationships<br />

with family members, his magazine,<br />

and much more.<br />

BIO Princess Grace<br />

Bradford, Sarah<br />

LP-2079<br />

Princess Grace will be remembered as<br />

a fairy-tale heroine, the shy convent<br />

girl from Philadelphia who achieved<br />

stunning success as an actress, then<br />

abandoned her career in films, at age<br />

twenty-six, to marry the ruler of a tiny<br />

principality perched high above the<br />

Mediterranean Sea. Only a woman<br />

trained and devoted to duty could have<br />

given it all up for an even greater role:<br />

Her serene Highness, Princess Grace<br />

of Monaco.<br />

Bragg, Rick<br />

A haunting memoir by a Pulitzer<br />

Prize-winning journalist, "All Over but<br />

the Shoutin'" presents a gripping<br />

account of people struggling to make<br />

sense and solidity of life's capricious<br />

promises. As he tells the wrenching<br />

story of his own family's life in the<br />

dirt-poor Alabama hills, where he got<br />

out, but has never been quite about to<br />

leave, Bragg attempts to both atone for<br />

and to avenge the mistakes and<br />

cruelties of his past.<br />

BIO Marilyn: The Last Take<br />

Brown, Peter<br />

LP-0209<br />

Two veteran Hollywood journalists<br />

join forces to tell the complete story of<br />

Marilyn Monroe's final days. Based on<br />

thousands of newly discovered<br />

documents, hours of footage from her<br />

last film, and over 300 revealing<br />

interviews, this is an astonishing<br />

account of what really happened<br />

during the last 14 weeks in the life of<br />

Hollywood's legendary sex goddess.<br />
