Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "Almost single-handedly, Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy transformed the nation's aesthetic tastes. And this collection from the JFK Library and Museum, displayed in New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art (among other future places), pays simple and elegant homage to this ultimate tastemaker. Three essays, from Vogue editor Hamish Bowles, friend Rachel Lambert Mellon, and historian Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr., examine in detail different aspects of Jackie's life, including the inauguration, her White House style, her travels, and her hats, as well as other topics. Photographs highlight features of the dresses, famous faces, and historical places. Viewers can expect a sense of nostalgia, a swelling of pride, and a tightening of the throat. A time line of Jackie's life is appended. --Barbara Jacobs"
