Product Description

Every move he makes makes news. With a salute, John F. Kennedy, Jr., won the hearts of all America 35 years ago. He's been part of the American scene since the day of his birth and his large, extended family has been plagued by tragedy and tarnished by scandal. In this fascinating, unauthorized biography, the author goes beyond "The Hunk's" exquisite exterior to give us a glimpse into JFK Jr., the man.

3.0 out of 5 stars 2/3 Kennedy Family + 1/3 John Jr. = this book, January 7, 2000
I bought this book hoping to have a nice memory of a life extinguished in its prime. It wasn't long reading (I read the entire thing in under 2 hours) but it was brief, interesting reading. To my suprise, I discovered that this short book gives a tiny glimpse into the Kennedy family spanning back to John Jr.'s great-grandparents. I enjoyed the author's candid and blunt writing style. He certainly spared no feelings in writing this book, as you will see when reading about John Jr.'s mediocre accomplishments, Jackie's controlling maternal style, and the president's wanderings during marriage. The favoritism the family has enjoyed in the pursuit of different endeavors was especially riveting. (The interesting acquiring of the president's Pulitzer Prize, for example.) I would be untruthful, however, if I didn't admit that I did learn a lot from this book. If you don't want to devote days to a heavy biography on America's Royal Family, but are still interested in some behind the scenes escapades, then I would recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Greek God in a Suit, September 4, 2009
I absolutely loved this book. What is there NOT to love about JFK Jr. He is handsome, big-hearted, and seems as though he is a great guy...not because of his fame but because that is the man his mother raised him to be. I loved reading about his entire life and the pictures.....SMOKIN HOT!!! It leaves you wanting to know more about this fine specimen of manliness!!
