What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Michael Cole is the only person who knew all three victims of the fatal Pont de l'Alma road tunnel crash that occurred in Paris, in the early hours of 31 August, 1997: Diana, Princess of Wales, Dodi Al Fayed and Henri Paul, their driver. Michael discovered that the Princess had not survived her terrible injuries nearly two hours before news of her death was announced by the British ambassador.

During that surreal interval, it was reported that Diana was not badly injured and had walked to the ambulance. At first, Michael thought the crash was a tragic accident that had robbed two young people of their lives and happiness. Michael accompanied his boss, Mohamed Al Fayed, and his wife, Heini, to the Princess's funeral in Westminster Abbey.

But even before that things started to happen which to him, a seasoned journalist and award-winning TV correspondent, seemed strange. He sensed a cover-up, with the authorities on both sides of the Channel anxious to write off the deaths of the world's most celebrated woman and her lover as accidental. But an English jury brought in a verdict of 'Unlawful Killing'.

This is the inside story of what really happened.
