She has been the subject of numerous books and thousands of articles, and her lige has been chronicled in millions of words. And yet there has always remained something mysterious, something private about this very public woman. With extraordinary skill and great sensitivity, Barbara Leaming's biography explores the seemingly magical world of Jackie's youth, her fairy-tale marriage to a wealthy and handsome Senator and Presidential candidate, and her astonishing transformation into a deft political wife and unique First Lady. This spirited young woman's rejection of the idea of a 'safe marriage' as the wife of some socially prominent but utterly predictable man led her to JFK and, in time, international fame. But the trauma of her husband's murder, which left her literally soaked in blood and brains, would damage her far more than has been known. Until now. Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis : the untold story is the first book to document Jackie's brutal, lonely, and valiant thirty-one-year struggle with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Here is the woman as she has never been seen before. In heartrending detail, Leaming writes of a struggle that unfolded at times before our own eyes, but which we failed to understand. While the life of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis has been examined and scrutinized countless times, it is only now that we can truly understand the woman behind the facade, the untold story of this iconic woman" --Summary taken from Front Flap. |
