Slight wear to top DJ edge. Queen Noor discusses the many challenges as wife and partner to King Hussein of Jordan. She provides an intimate portrait of the late King and a moving account of the demands his public role as a world statesman placed on the royal couple's private life. Noor Al Hussein born Lisa Najeeb Halaby; August 23 1951 is an American-born Jordanian philanthropist and activist who is the fourth wife and widow of King Hussein of Jordan. She was Queen of Jordan from their marriage on June 15 1978 until Hussein's death on February 7 1999. Noor is the longest-standing member of the Board of Commissioners of the International Commission on Missing Persons. As of 2023 she is president of the United World Colleges movement and an advocate of the anti-nuclear weapons proliferation campaign Global Zero. In 2015 Queen Noor received Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson Award for her public service. After she graduated from Princeton Halaby moved to Australia where she worked for a firm that specialized in planning new towns with a burgeoning interest in the Middle East. She accepted a job with Alia Airlines as Director of Facilities Planning and Design. Halaby and the king became friends while he was still mourning the death of his third wife. Their friendship evolved and the couple became engaged in 1978. Before her marriage she accepted her husband's Sunni Islamic religion and upon the marriage changed her name from Lisa Halaby to the royal name Noor Al Hussein "Light of Hussein". Leap of Faith is the dramatic and inspiring story of an American woman's remarkable journey into the heart of a man and his nation. Born into a distinguished Arab-American family and raised amid privilege Lisa Halaby joined the first freshman class at Princeton to accept women graduating in 1974 with a degree in architecture and urban planning. Two years later while visiting her father in Jordan she was casually introduced on the airport runway to King Hussein. Widely admired in the Arab world as a voice of moderation and for his direct lineage to the prophet Muhammad Hussein would soon become the world's most eligible bachelor after the tragic death of his wife. The next time they met Hussein would fall headlong in love with the athletic outspoken daughter of his longtime friend. After a whirlwind secret courtship Lisa Halaby became Noor Al Hussein Queen of Jordan. With eloquence and candor Queen Noor speaks of the obstacles she faced as a naive young bride in the royal court of rebelling against the smothering embrace of security guards and palace life and of her own successful struggle to create a working role as a humanitarian activist In a court that simply expected Noor to keep her husband happy. As she gradually took on the mantle of a queen Noor's joys and challenges grew. After a heartbreaking miscarriage she gave birth to four children. Meshing the demands of motherhood with the commitments of her position often proved difficult but she tried to keep her young children by her side even while flying the world with her husband in his relentless quest for peace. This mission would reap satisfying rewards including greater Arab unity and a peace treaty with Israel and suffer such terrible setbacks as the Gulf War and the assassination of Prime Minister Rabin. Leap of Faith is a remarkable document. It is the story of a young American woman who became wife and partner to an Arab monarch. It provides a compelling portrait of the late King Hussein and his lifelong effort to bring peace to his war torn region and an insider's view of the growing gulf between the United States and the Arab nations. It is also the refreshingly candid story of a mother coming to terms with the demands the king's role as a world statesman placed on her family's private life. But most of all it is a love story the intimate account of a woman who lost her heart to a king and to his people. Miramax Books hardcover
