What if he were really a nobleman, an earl who could trace his roots to a time before William the Conqueror? And what if, unlike the man from Stratford-upon-Avon, we had an undeniable record of his education--a degree from Oxford University and a solid grounding in the law that would explain the plenitude of Tudor legalese in the plays? Again, unlike the Stratford man, this nobleman would have once resided...

In Tokyo, RINKO YAMAZAKI, 78, once took the princess on a tour of a senior-care center. When the news broke, she stood by a photograph of herself and Diana and murmured, "Please sleep peacefully...
...America could dress up, go to the ball and come back with a prince. She left Hollywood and found royalty. Diana crossed the other way, dancing with John Travolta at the White House. She was the next chapter, the princess who insisted, with the innocence of a New World conqueror, that love could be brought into the royal chamber.
