Description: The first full and sweeping biography of Jacqueline Onassis since her death. In Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis: A Life, Donald Spoto separates Jackie Onassis from the myriad legends and plain untruths that have beclouded her life since the early 1960s. Based on Spoto's unprecedented access to a wealth of dramatic material newly released by the John F. Kennedy Archives and Interviews with those who knew her best, this book contains surprising new revelations and details on Jackie's marriages to the President of the United States and to the richest man in the world, as well as her subtle yet powerful influence on the policies of the Kennedy administration (especially in light of newly-released information from the medical files of President Kennedy). The book also presents the first complete portrait of her astonishing final years -- from her vibrant life as a dedicated, hard-working editor and devoted mother -- to her inspiring journey toward deep inner peace and wisdom. By bringing his prodigious biographical and research skills, as well as his spiritual insight to Jackie Onassis, Donald Spoto endows her story with a gravity and insight that no other biographer has yet been able to achieve. Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis: A Life at last offers the whole story -- the powerful, piognant, controversial and inspiring biography of the most fascinating woman in American history.
