Ok book, vile subject
This book is well written, however, it reveals its subject, Jackie Kennedy, as a disgracefully vain and self centered brat who never grew up and considered the modern day equivalent of 2 million dollars a year “inadequate” to maintain her shallow lifestyle.
With rare photos and personal letters, this book is a staple for any Jackie lover.
