When she was First Lady, Jacqueline Kennedy achieved a life beyond her wildest dreams. She had the love of the most powerful man in the world, a mansion with a staff of servants, a fleet of limousines, airplanes, and helicopters, round-the-clock security, a wardrobe created by her own couturier, and the adoration of millions of people. Then, in a split second in Dallas, she lost it all.

Just Jackie: Her Private Years is the story of a woman who struggles to recapture her old life with all its power and glory, only to discover that the key to her happiness lies where she least expects it - in the simple pleasures of family, friendship, work, and nature.

For this myth-shattering portrait, Klein has amassed a wealth of exclusive information from private documents and correspondence, FBI files, and hundreds of interviews with Jackie's friends, the associates of Aristotle Onassis, and people familiar with her longtime companion, the mysterious diamond merchant Maurice Templesman.

Much more than a portrait of a famous celebrity. Klein's journalistic tour de force captures the essence of a captivating woman, whose passion for wealth was matched only by her deep need for privacy. In Just Jackie: Her Private Years, Klein reveals for the first time how Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis finally found the love and contentment she was searching for all her life.
