Amazon Review
As a child, author John H. Davis spent summers with Jackie and the Bouviers and was like a member of the family. In this, his third book on the aristocratic clan, Davis covers Jackie's life until her first wedding. Mr. Davis possessed great disdain for Jackie's mother and includes many nasty details about her--including how she hired a young woman to trap her husband in verifiable infidelity. He also writes that a close friend of Jackie's father later moved to Texas and became the "principal mentor and friend" to Lee Harvey Oswald--a revelation that puts a new twist on the conspiracy theory.

Davis." Boston Herald "Goes a long way to highlight the formative influence of her privileged back-ground and her warm relationship with her father, the philandering Jack (Black Jack) Bouvier." Los Angeles Times "Re-creates a colorful, fast-fading slice of American life as it flourished in the shadows of toll hedges and long lineages." The Miami Herald "The most charming and reliable in the batch [of Jackie books] is Davis's memoir." The Atlanta Journal and Constitution "Entertaining, a guilty pleasure." The Associated Press "This tender memoir of Jackie's early years sheds much light on the future woman we all wanted to know but never could." The Star-Ledger (Newark)
