Summary: A real treat if you like Jackie Kennedy, and who doesn't?
Comment: I really enjoyed this book. It is jam packed with wonderful photographs that cover the whole range of Jackie Kennedy's White House life - from the most formal of evening gowns to the most casual of Capri pants and T-shirts - you really get a look at the whole woman's life of style. What a life it was!
The stories and captions that go along with the hundreds of photos are fun and informative. It's like history with wit and verve. There are pictures everyplace, from the cover to the inside cover to each and every page and many of them I've never seen before.
It's an amusing, informative look at one shining aspect of the life of America's Queen, Jacqueline Kennedy.

Summary: A LAVISH TRIBUTE, AS ELEGANT AS THE LADY HERSELF
Comment: Jay Mulvaney has worked magic in his tribute to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. This book, with a huge number of never before seen photos, is like an illustrated history of the Camelot era...and the book brings the romance, hope and promise of those times back to life, in black and white and vivid color.
More than the pictures though, are the words...choice little stories that recount the history behind Jackie's wonderful work in the White House...each "photo caption" (it seems unfair to call them that, they're so much more) is a little vignette that illustrates in words what the photographs show us.
Jackie did so much in such a short period of time, and this book captures her magical essence...
Truly a MUST HAVE for anyone interested in Jackie, in fashion, in history, in style and beauty.

Summary: Excellent record of 60's style as seen thru the eyes of JO
Comment: I am not a die-hard Jackie O fan, but I love fashion in general. I have always thought of Jackie O as a fashion icon, and wanted to learn more about her. Until now, I have never seen a book that pictorally does her sense of style justice. However, in this book there are enough photographs both in black and white and in color to satisfy any fashion junkie or Jackie O fan. No matter what the situation, Jackie O was always appropriately and fashionably attired. This book does an excellent job of showing this by portraying her clothing choices through the years and in a variety of categories. This book does not go into great detail about Jackie O as a person or historical figure, I don't think it was written with those objectives in mind, but it should satisfy the fashion cravings of most people. I highly recommend it.
