“Fascinating…the fullest portrait of Kennedy ever written.” —The Washington Post

The first oral biography of John F. Kennedy Jr. is an extraordinarily intimate and detailed look at the real man behind the myth. Sharing never-before-told stories, his closest friends, confidantes, lovers, classmates, teachers, and colleagues paint a vivid portrait of one of the most beloved figures of the 20th century who still captures public imagination twenty-five years after his tragic death.

Born into the spotlight, John F. Kennedy Jr. lived a short but remarkable life filled with expectation, ambition, family pressures, love, and tragedy. JFK Jr.dives deep into his complicated psyche and explores the what-ifs, illuminating both the cultural and political moment he inhabited and the way this son of a president, so full of promise, embodied America’s most cherished hopes.

His wild life being a perfect person

Of course, I loved it. I remember that horrible weekend and then the week after. I would love to hear or read Sen Ted Kennedy’s eulogy given at The Funeral for nephew, nephew’s wife and wife’s sister.Embodied all so effectively. Well done!

Amazing.

Done very respectfully. A great tribute to JFK Jr., Carolyn, and Lauren. I really enjoyed learning about them.

Great read

Great read. I remember JFK Jr. but I was just a kid when the accident occurred. It was great to learn more about the man.

Raw, Honest Memories

I love the idea of an oral history about JFK, Jr. The breadth of people who knew John throughout his short life from different points/stages of his life created a full picture of the man.

This oral history made me quite emotional, but for the first time, I got a complete picture of someone who was more than just a little boy who saluted his father's casket. He was more than just the president's son. He was a whole person. I highly recommend this read.

Terrific book with all the details!

You learn about his positives and flaws, and all the details about the day that they died. You learn the things that tortured him such as his father's assassination. You learn about his difficulties with relationships with women and what his marriage was like. Multiple voices narrating and all quotes from real people who knew him. High quality content. Is not tabloid stuff. I highly recommend this book!
