Finding Sarah : A duchess's journey to find herself (2011) Sarah Ferguson



From the airbrushed photo on the cover to the inside of this book, at best it can be described as somewhat interesting, however Sarah Ferguson seems very, very self-serving.  Always the victim, she can only learn from her mistakes (before she makes more).  She was careless with her husband and his money.  Her mother is blamed for many of her problems, as her mother left the family to live in Argentia with a new love. Granted, this was a difficult time, but Sarah had ready access to elite society through her father. Sarah was less prepared to be a princess than was Diana. Her autobiography reveals herself in only the most positive way (well, I guess we would all do that).  She continues to praise and adore her ex-husband, Andrew, and describes him as her best friend. Since they still live in the same house after 15 years of divorce, it becomes obvious to me that they should never have separated.  Then Sarah could have those designer clothes without sanction. Any maybe even attend Christmas with the Royal Family.
