Praise from other Readers: "Insightful and interesting biography, the author provides plenty of details and stories about her life." "To be honest, the only things I knew about her were that she came from a wealthy family, was married to JFK, and was considered a fashion icon. This biography, of course, went well beyond that information. I was particularly interested in reading about her childhood as well as her life after the President's assassination. It's clear that the author really did his research to make this book as informative as possible." "Insightful and interesting biography, the author provides plenty of details and stories about her life." "A wonderful book that gave me more insight into the life of Jackie." "This book taught me a few things I had never known about such as the fact Jackie went through PTSD after the death of her husband and developed obsessive remembering, guilt, helplessness, angry outbursts; suicidal threats and fears of being the next target.." "Brown's biography of Jackie Kennedy Onassis is both strong, gripping, and well-written. We see her life play out in a descriptive, linear fashion with an intriguing murder-mystery-like narrative style. I enjoyed this book quite a lot and found a lot of the information to not only be easy to read and get into, but found the story of her life to be strong and raw..."
