Mrs. Kennedy by Barbara Leaming
New York Times bestselling author Barbara Leaming answers the question: What was it like to be Mrs. John F. Kennedy during the dramatic thousand days of the Kennedy presidency? Here for the first time is the full story of the extravagant interplay of sex and politics that constitutes one of modern history's most spectacular dramas. Drawing from recently declassified top-secret material, as well as revelatory eyewitness accounts, Secret Service records, and Jacqueline Kennedy's personal letters, bestselling biographer Barbara Leaming answers the question: what was it like to be Mrs. John F. Kennedy during the dramatic thousand days of the Kennedy presidency? Brilliantly researched, Leaming's poignant and powerful chronicle illuminates the tumultuous day-to-day life of a woman who entered the White House at age thirty-one, seven years into a complex and troubled marriage, and left at thirty-four after her husband's assassination. Revealing the full story of the interplay of sex and politics in Washington, Mrs. Kennedy will indelibly challenge our vision of this fascinating woman, and bring a new perspective to her crucial role in the Kennedy presidency.Barbara Leaming is the author of three New York Times bestsellers, including Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, which was published recently. The International Churchill Centre awarded Leaming's book Churchill Defiant The Emery Reves Award. Jack Kennedy: The Education of a Statesman, her trailblazing biography of America's 35th President, was the first to demonstrate the lifelong effect of British history and culture, particularly Winston Churchill, on JFK. Her work has appeared in publications such as the New York Times Magazine, Vanity Fair, the Times of London, and others.
