Book excerpt: The bestselling author of What Would Jackie Do? turns her loving lens on Jacqueline Kennedy's "Secretary of Style" selection of Oleg Cassini, launching a powerful partnership that influenced global fashion for decades. As the glamorous Kennedys took the White House in 1961, Jackie appointed famed designer- and family friend-Oleg Cassini, as her personal "Secretary of Style." From classic pillbox hats to casually elegant daywear and empire dresses, Cassini created an enduring look for the stylish Mrs. Kennedy, and she became a fashion muse for the ages. Meanwhile, women across the country enthusiastically copied her look-one that endures today and that transformed Jackie into one of the most beloved style icons of all time. Jackie and Cassini showcases the fashions and details the collaborations of an extraordinary teaming of designer and muse.

When young Jackie Bouvier receives her second assignment from the CIA, she knows it will go better than her first.

So she's excited to show her boss exactly what she can do for her country. Her new mission: Go undercover in sultry Havana and investigate a young revolutionary named Fidel Castro. But before Jackie can infiltrate the communist cabal, she's in past her hemline in danger. In another exciting adventure, she colludes with Grace Kelly, dances with Frank Sinatra, and flirts with an up-and-coming congressman from Massachusetts. As the international intrigue escalates, Jackie must use all her finely honed skills to stay ahead of her enemies . . . and make sure spying never goes out of fashion.

Book excerpt: Unlike so many other books, Grace and Power rejects gossip and conspiracy theory to tell the story of John and Jackie’s three years in the White House soberly, comprehensively and sensitively, from beginning to sudden end. Sally Bedell Smith’s book on John and Jackie Kennedy was hailed by authoritative reviewers on both sides of the Atlantic as the most distinguished and well-written book on a perennially fascinating subject for years. In the US the hardback was high on the New York Times bestseller list for weeks. It is an immensely poignant chronicle of pivotal historical events seen from the inside out, from within the private home of the President and First Lady. Amidst the superficial opulence of their social circle, we see the Cuban Missile Crisis and the burgeoning American civil rights movement from the perspective of an invalid president often barely well enough to appear in public. Together with his young wife, abandoned by her husband’s relentless womanising, nevertheless changed the politics and style of America. Grace and Power is the classic account of that time.

Book excerpt: More than anything else, the name Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis is associated with style. Jackie's style was elegant yet sporty, sophisticated yet casual. Like Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly, Jackie came of age during the postwar years, a time of relative affluence when American women had the wherewithal to take style seriously. She was thirty-one when her husband was elected President, becoming the youngest First Lady ever, and she brought a breath of fresh air to the White House. Her style was easy to imitate and accessible to anyone; among the classic items she made popular are the sleeveless A-line shift dress and those famous big dark sunglasses. Key to the enduring popularity of Jackie Style is that it was never static; it evolved over time. In the early 1960s, she favoured prim French suits, white clafskin gloves and pillbox hats; a decade later, her trademarks included black turtlenecks and white jeans, bellbottom trousersuits and maxi coats. When she returned to Manhattan after the death of Onassis, her working woman's uniform as an editor at Doubleday consisted of softly draped trousers and silk blouses by Valentino, in the most exquisite colour combinations.

Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of Kennedy Weddings and Diana and Jackie comes a powerful and moving collection of the condolence letters Jacqueline Kennedy received after the assassination of John F. Kennedy In the weeks and months following the assassination of her husband, First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy received more than one million letters. The impact of President Kennedy's death was so immense that people from every station in life wrote to her, sharing their feelings of sympathy, sorrow, and hope. She received letters from political luminaries such as Winston Churchill, Martin Luther King Jr., and Charles De Gaulle. Hollywood stars like Lauren Bacall, Vivian Leigh, and Gene Kelly voiced their sympathy, as did foreign dignitaries including Queen Elizabeth II, the King and Queen of Greece, and the Prince of Monaco. Distinguished members of the arts and society—Ezra Pound, Noel Coward, Babe Paley, Langston Hughes, Oleg Cassini, Josephine Baker—offered their heartfelt condolences. And children, with the most heartbreaking sincerity, reached out to the First Lady to comfort her in her time of grief. More than just a compendium of letters, Dear Mrs. Kennedy uses these many voices to tell the unforgettable story of those fateful four days in November, when the world was struck with shock and sadness. It vividly captures the months that followed, as a nation---and a family---attempted to rebuild. Filled with emotion, patriotism, and insight, the letters are a poignant time capsule of one of the seminal events of the twentieth century. Dear Mrs. Kennedy offers a diverse portrait not only of the aftermath of the assassination, but of the Kennedy mystique that continues to captivate the world.
