Jacqueline Bouvier: An Intinate Memoir

Book was in better condition than was described; time contract for delivery was accurate. Very satisfied with product and service.

Excellent book about Jackie's childhood

This was one of the first books I read about Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, and though I've read many since, I still consider this one of the best. It is filled with reminisces of events experienced by the author, a cousin of Jackie's who kept in touch with her throughout her life. The author has done extensive research into both the Bouviers and the Kennedys in his other writings - this book is an interesting and informative combination of that research and his personal memories of Jackie as a child and young woman. Highly recommended to all who wish to learn more about the less documented part of Jackie's life.

CAPTIVATING
