Books by Sarah, Duchess of York

My Story by Sarah Ferguson and Jeff Coplon. In this surprising autobiography, the Duchess of York reveals herself as a deeply fearful and insecure woman who never thought she was good enough to be a member of the royal family.

A very interesting book. Out of print, but available from Alibris.
