Jackie, Quick Overview of Her Life
This book is excellent for a quick overview of Jacqueline (Bouvier) Kennedy Onassis, her life, her family and the world around her. While an enormous amount of research seems to have been done, the book remains a quick read but packed with facts and details. You gain an understanding of how Jackie responded to the world's need to think of her and treat her as royalty. While the book is short, Ellen Ladowsky provides enough detail for you to feel like you now know a little more about her and the many people (children, husbands, friends, presidents and many others) that were involved in her life. I recommend the book to anyone wanting to get a brief look at Jackie and/or the first step to studying her life in detail.
