1.0 out of 5 stars JFK Jr: Life In Review, March 16, 2000
By Deborah A. Pankow (El Paso, TX USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book does appear to offer a fairly accurate and close look at John Kennedy, Jr. But, it spends too much time discussing the Kennedys and Jackie. It should have focused more attention to the subject itself: John. A huge indiscrepancy is that John Jr. was born on Thanksgiving Day. Any good fact checker could have easily discovered that November 25, 1960 was a Friday, not a Thursday. When an author commits such a mistake, their credibility for accuracy of the rest of material in the book has to be questioned. As another reviewer wrote, any magazine offers a better biography of John Kennedy, Jr. than this book does. The best part of this book, however small, was the photos.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a good source for Carolyn Bessette information., December 24, 2000
This back of the book cover led me to believe there would be interesting information on his wife, Carolyn. Ha! There was practically no information on his wife. I learned more about her in a single magazine article then from this book. It has the basic geographic info: born, lived, schooled. Boring. If you are a diehard JFK JR then go for it, otherwise there are much better books on him. If you are looking for Carolyn info, look elsewhere. Period.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not much about last few years of life, October 14, 1999
By A Customer
I enjoyed reading this book it was very informative and easy to read. However, there was NOT much written about his romance and marriage with CAROLYN BESSETTE -LESS THAN 5 PAGES!! This disappointed me. Tons of info about his youth and school days were revealed, even about his dabbling with narcotics. But, if you want more recent biographical material this is not the book.
