"A gripping tale from beginning to end...A touching memoir that would read
like a fairy tale were it not for the unfortunate ending."---Booklist
"To marry a prince should portend living happily ever after in a kingdom
filled with tranquility and love. Sargent's 'ever after' with her Shan
prince lasted little more than a decade: in a 1962 coup d'etat by Burmese
Army General Ne Win, her husband, Sao Kya Seng, the Prince of Hsipaw...was
executed. An Austrian by birth, Sargent records in a tender, affecting
manner their courtship and her introduction and adaptation to the varied
social and cultural aspects of Shan life."----Library Journal
