I learned many new things about Jackie and JFK's assasination that had never been told before. Interesting and fast read.

In November 1993 Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis took a tumble from her horse during a hunt in Virginia. A scarce six months later, on May 19, 1994, this fascinating woman of substance, style, and steely will passed away in her Park Avenue home. Farewell, Jackie by bestselling author Edward Klein, who knew Jackie for more than a dozen years, is the moving account of those last months and a celebration of the life of an American icon who faced death as she faced lifewith all the bravery and grace of a woman who had long inspired the nation.
Chronicling the circumstances of Jackies diagnosis of non-Hodgkins lymphoma, the astonishing pace of the cancers progress, the treatments she endured, and the ones she refused, Klein recounts her heart-wrenching story, celebrating Jackies life. Farewell, Jackie is a regal tribute and an inspiring account of the last days of a woman whose legacy endures in post- Camelot America.
