| Description: |
A memoir by the Secret Service agent assigned for four years to protect Jackie Kennedy, detailing his close relationship with the First Lady. |
| Synopsis: |
Clint Hill will forever be remembered as the agent who jumped onto the car after President Kennedy was shot and clung to the sides of the car as it sped toward the hospital. Now, in Mrs. Kennedy and Me, he recounts those painful memories along with his fonder recollections of the First Lady's strength, class, dignity, and beauty during the time he was assigned as her personal agent. Hill was by Mrs. Kennedy's side for some of the happiest moments in her life as well as the darkest. He was there for the birth of John, Jr. as well as for the birth and sudden death of Patrick Bouvier Kennedy on August 8, 1963. Hill was there for Jackie's first meetings with men like Aristotle Onassis, Gianni Agnelli, and Andre Malraux; Jackie's trips to Europe, Asia, and South America; Kennedy-family holidays in Hyannis Port; and the dark days following the assassination. An astonishing and intimate portrait, told for the first time, Mrs. Kennedy and Meis a remarkable and true story of heroism, heartbreak, and humanity. |
