　　"A FRESH AND UNVARNISHED PORTRAIT OF A FASCINATING, TALENTED,

AND DEEPLY FLAWED FAMILY."

—Boston Herald

Laurence Leamer was granted unheralded access to private Kennedy

papers, and he interviewed family and old friends, many of whom had

never been interviewed before, for this incredible portrait of the

women in America’s "royal family." From Bridget Murphy, the

foremother who touched shore at East Boston in 1849, to the

intelligent, independent Kennedy women of today, Laurence Leamer

tells their unforgettable stories.

Here are the private thoughts of Kathleen, the flirtatious

debutante in prewar England . . . the truth behind Joe Kennedy’s

insistence that his mildly retarded daughter, Rosemary, be

lobotomized . . . the real story behind Joan and Ted’s whirlwind

romance . . . Jackie’s desire for a divorce from JFK in the 1950s .

. . Pat Lawford’s disastrous Hollywood marriage . . . how Caroline

discovered her cousin David’s death by overdose, and more.

Tough enough to withstand the unimaginable, these Kennedy women

soldier on in the name of their extraordinary family and what they

believe is right.

"MASTERFUL . . . AN ENDLESSLY FASCINATING READ . . . A wealth of

beautifully rendered social detail, at times reading like a realist

novel by Edith Wharton . . . [A] page-turner from start to

finish."
