JFK: Public, Private, Secret
About the Book
JFK: Public, Private, Secret
From the New York Times bestselling Kennedy historian and author of JACKIE: Public, Private, Secret comes the other side of the story --- her husband’s: JFK: Public, Private, Secret.
In this definitive portrait of John Fitzgerald Kennedy --- one of America’s most consequential and enigmatic presidents --- J. Randy Taraborrelli delivers a deeply researched and authoritative biography. More than the story of a presidency, this is an intimate study of a man whose public triumphs were shaped --- and at times overshadowed --- by the complex realities of his private life, from his legendary family to his marriage to Jacqueline Kennedy.
The book draws from hundreds of interviews conducted over 25 years --- as well as candid, first-hand oral histories from the John Fitzgerald Kennedy Presidential Library, rare internal reports from the Secret Service, detailed files from the National Archives, and intelligence documents from both the CIA and the FBI. This is JFK as never before captured by history: brilliant yet fallible, revered yet human --- a figure whose legacy continues to shape America and the world.
