Grace and Power The Private World of the Kennedy White House

"What Ms. Smith has done is to write the first substantial narrative that captures what daily life was really like in the inner sanctum of the White House during the Kennedy years, with Jack and Jackie appropriately cast as the lead actors in the intriguing drama. It is not a high-minded policy book. Those interested in gleaning new information about the Cuban missile crisis or the Peace Corps or the Berlin Wall will be disappointed. Power is a forgotten ingredient in Ms. Smith's kiss-and-tell stew. But she does bring into focus a marriage that still has the world talking."Bedell-Smith, Sally is the author of 'Grace and Power The Private World of the Kennedy White House', published 2005 under ISBN 9780345480828 and ISBN 0345480821.
