With JFK, she had captured the world's imagination. Without him, she would hold it until her own death three decades later - achieving a kind of global fame that has rarely been known in this century. Billions of words have been written about her, but Jackie guarded her privacy so fiercely that she remains veiled in mystery and mystique. . . . In this much-anticipated sequel to his 1996 bestseller, ""Jack and Jackie,"" Christopher Andersen draws on previously sealed archival material and newly declassified documents - as well as important sources who have agreed to speak here for the first time - to paint a sympathetic yet often startling portrait of Jackie in all her rich complexity. . . .
