From the author of eighteen internationally bestselling biographies comes the first complete account of the life of perhaps the most famous woman of the twentieth century. Donald Spoto separates her from the many legends, the gossip, and the plain untruths that have obscured Jackie's life.Based on unprecedented access to a wealth of new material gleaned from her own writings; from documents at the schools she attended; from the archives of the John F. Kennedy Library; and from interviews with those who knew her best, this book offers astonishing revelations about every period of Jackie's life -- from her marriages to the president of the United States and to the richest man in the world, to her remarkable and exciting career.Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis also presents the first portrait of Jackie's remarkable final years, from her vibrant life as an influential, hard-working editor and devoted mother to her hitherto unknown journey toward deep inner peace and wisdom.Donald Spoto is the author of 'Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis: A Life' with ISBN 9781568958958 and ISBN 1568958951.
