Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, first published in 1961, is biography of the first-lady, from her early childhood to her meeting and marriage with John F. Kennedy. The book ends with the family's move into the White House (and before the President's tragic assassination in November 1963). Author Mary Rensselaer Thayer worked closely with Mrs. Kennedy to produce the book, and it is reported that Jacqueline prepared much of the initial draft. Included are 35 pages of illustrations.
