Customer Reviews

nice pictures (and text)

This book is primarily worth it for the mnay great photos of JFK and Jackie, especially of the White House rooms themselves. That said, the text is pretty good, as well. Two items of interest--that isn't J. Edgar Hoover behind Jackie on the front cover but lookalike Secret Service agent Stewart G. "Stu" Stout, Jr. Also, I like the picture of Marilyn Monroe with Secret Service agent Floyd M. Boring (wearing glasses) in front of her on the steps! [...]

A treasure of a book!!

What a classy book that one is! The White House as it was at the time of the Kennedys... and looking at some of those never seen before pictures, we can relive the elegance, charm and grace of that unique period. Two thumbs up Mr. Sferrazza!!

Best Kennedy book ever

This one has it all. It has the best photos ever seen of the Kennedys. Lots of them are revealing and more personal than ever seen. There is a closeness that the pictures have that the same old ones somehow miss. Also it summarizes the story of this famous family compactly. The writing has depth and understanding.

He's done it again!!!

Carl Sferrazza Anthony's new book is "top drawer!"He has once again created a read that is both interesting and informative! If you are interested in some behind the scene photo's as well as some behind the scenes info.....buy it!

Like I was there

I'm not a total Kennedy Zealot, but I was looking at books this pm before a movie and this one caught my eye. What a great read. I actually missed the movie and have not put it down. I've never written one of these reviews, but thought that I should because I've never been this captivated by a book before. If you want to put yourself in the shoes of this family, this is the book. I felt like a real insider and the warmth of what it must have been like to live in Camelot was mine for the past few hours.
