Jackie

Résumé du livre

Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, affectionately known as simply Jackie, is an icon for the ages. Her grace, beauty, style, intellect, and charm combined to create a truly magnetic appeal to young and old, men and women, close acquaintances and political leaders. Jackie reigned effortlessly in the global world of power and wealth as the wife of a US president and later as the wife of a Greek shipping magnate. Yet her primary goal in life was to be a good mother to her children, Caroline and John. She successfully shepherded them through the political tumult of the 1960s and the loss of their father and uncle, Bobby Kennedy, always in the glare of public scrutiny that fueled the ever-present paparazzi. Widowed for the second time, Jackie chose to pursue a career in publishing. The "Inquiring Camera Girl" of the Washington-Times Herald had come full circle. In 1994, the world lost a most unusual person. A small remembrance of her life is offered in the pages of this book. [Amazon].
