Named one of the best books of 2017 by Time, People, Amazon.com, The Guardian, Paste Magazine, & Vogue

Tina Brown kept delicious daily diaries throughout her eight spectacular years as editor-in-chief of Vanity Fair. Today they provide an incendiary portrait of the flash and dash and power brokering of the Excessive Eighties in New York and Hollywood.

The Vanity Fair Diaries is the story of an Englishwoman barely out of her twenties who arrives in New York City with a dream. Summoned from London in hopes that she can save Cond Nast's troubled new flagship Vanity Fair, Tina Brown is immediately plunged into the maelstrom of the competitive New York media world and the backstabbing rivalries at the court of the planet's slickest, most glamour-focused magazine company. She survives the politics, the intrigue, and the attempts to derail her by a simple stratagem: succeeding. In the face of rampant skepticism, she triumphantly reinvents a failing magazine.

Here are the inside stories of Vanity Fair scoops and covers that sold millions--the Reagan kiss, the meltdown of Princess Diana's marriage to Prince Charles, the sensational Annie Leibovitz cover of a gloriously pregnant, naked Demi Moore. In the diary's cinematic pages, the drama, the comedy, and the struggle of running an "it" magazine come to life. Brown's Vanity Fair Diaries is also a woman's journey, of making a home in a new country and of the deep bonds with her husband, their prematurely born son, and their daughter.

Astute, open-hearted, often riotously funny, Tina Brown's The Vanity Fair Diaries is a compulsively fascinating and intimate chronicle of a woman's life in a glittering era.

sturdy, easy and quick to put together
Size: g:Square Table with Umbrella Hole, Color: Light Grey
Packaged with care. No damage. Easy and quick to put together. I bought 2 for the deck. Goes well with any style outdoor furniture. Sturdy, heavy, wide enough that it shouldn't get blown over by the wind. The only problem was that several of the screws on each table couldn't be installed because the holes for attaching the base to the table top didn't line up properly and would not go in. The tops on each table still held together and as long as you don't lift from the top you can't tell. Other than that, they're super awesome end tables.

Easy to use
Size: g:Square Table with Umbrella Hole, Color: Black
perfect little porch table. I think it is best to just go between two chairs. I have a small fire pit on mine. Very sturdy and heavy duty but not too heavy. Pretty low price compared to others that I looked at.

Nice table, good find for use with umbrella
Size: g:Square Table with Umbrella Hole, Color: Teak
Really like this for my deck umbrella. Nice color. Be mindful of the room underneath for how you will set up a base so that it fits. Didn't take too long to put together. Only item I wasn't most thrilled with was hearing what I would describe as metal shavings in the tubes of the table legs/sides when rotating them so to speak.
