A Lady, First: My Life in the Kennedy White House… von Letitia Baldrige
NA
I bought this book on a whim at a library sale, and, sadly, it wasn't worth the $2 I paid for it. It's now back in the "donate to the library sale" pile--that's recycling for you.
This book was really just a collection of reminiscences from Ms. Baldwin, naturally enough, mostly about Jackie Kennedy. But there was nothing even remotely new, instructive, or entertaining about any of it. There were occasional touches of bitchy, but not even enough of that to make this worth the time it takes to read.
Two stars is a little too high, but without half stars, that's as close as I can get.… (mehr)

This is a fantastic resource for anyone interested in the receptions and entertainments provided by the Kennedys during their time in the White House. Letitia Baldrige really gives us the inside scoop with lots of interesting tidbits and behind the scenes details.
I'm only sorry this book wasn't longer.
