Drawing on new eyewitness testimony, letters written by Jackie, minute-by-minute Secret Service records, and recently declassified top-secret documents, the author has crafted a portrait of Jackie Kennedy the world has not previously known. Leaming's meticulous reportage illuminates the tumultuous day-to-day life of a young woman fighting for her survival, her marriage, and her husband's presidency."--BOOK JACKET.
