For three generations the Kennedy family has been in the public eye, and for three generations their marriages have been the American equivalent of "Royal Matches." Kennedy Weddings begins in 1914 with the dynastic marriage of Joseph P. Kennedy and Rose Fitzgerald, describes in lavish detail the weddings in the second generation, most notably those of JFK and Jackie, Bobby and Ethel and the tragic romance of Kathleen and her British lord, Billy Hartington and covers all of the third generation weddings, including JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette, Caroline Kennedy and Ed Schlossberg, Kerry Kennedy and Andrew Cuomo, Kathleen and David Townsend, Courtney Kennedy and Paul Hill, Kara Kennedy and Michael Allen, Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger. The accompanying photographs and papers, acquired from members of the Kennedy family themselves, private collections of friends, the JFK Library and National Archives, are rare and unusual - many have either never been published, or were published only at the time of the wedding. Kennedy Weddings is the result of years of extensive research and has benefited from the unprecedented cooperation of many members of the Kennedy family. A portion of the proceeds from this book is being donated to the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation.« less
