Synopsis

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“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.

This biography of JFK Jr was a great read. I love the format of the book. Acquaintances, friends, family members tell very personal stories relating to John & later his wife Carolyn.

Goodreads review by Shawna on July 26, 2024

Not sure it’s a solid 4… Because no matter how flat a pancake, there are 2 sides and generally the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Thank you Dr Phil. And sadly we are lacking their side. They are not here to defend themselves, or defend their truths. However there is new information given in the......more

Goodreads review by Kayla on August 28, 2024

Like any normal American, partially an Irish American, I have always been fascinated by the Kennedys. I knew a bit after JFK Jr but after this book I feel like I knew him. It’s an oral history told by his closest friends and confidantes that covers his entire life. I did this on audio and flew throu......more

Goodreads review by Jane on July 19, 2024

I am very familiar with the life of John Kennedy Jr. I am one week older than his sister Caroline, and basically grew up with the Kennedys in the news constantly. This is the first book I’ve read devoted solely to JFK Jr, and it was fascinating. It is a collection of memories told by the people who......more
