New York Jackie: Pictures From Her Life In The City Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
As familiar as we are with images of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, the charming former first lady, fewer know the dynamic woman who called New York City home. Shortly after JFK's assassination in 1964, Jackie moved to Manhattan and lived there for the next three decades. This intimate collection of photographs celebrates her life in the city as a mother, book editor, style icon, and most of all, a New Yorker. Eating ice cream with her kids on Fifth Avenue, working with authors at Doubleday Books, riding her bike through Central Park—these images capture the real-life joy, creative passion, and effortless grace of New York Jackie.

Overall this is a good photographic book. But if you're going to have a book that is mostly photographic content then the captions at least need to be spot on. Needless to say this is not quite the case with this book. There are some a major flaws when it comes to whomever checked the photographic content.. They are as follows...P39..outside La Cote Basque...looks like Central Park to me.P47..seeing I am curious Yellow...Should be 1969 not 1967.P48...Should be arriving at JFK airport.P56,57,64,67,69...Not even in New York. All photos taken in Paris. That is evident by the street signs in French and the multitude of Citroens and Renaults everywhere.P81...Should be talking to Steve Smith and William Walton...not Stephanie Boudin.P105..photo was taken in 1975 at first press conference for Grand Central Station not in 1978.P112 ..photo with Pete Hamil is from 1977 not 1979.P126-129...photos from Martha Vineyard...last time I looked Martha's Vineyard was not even in the state of New York.P136...photo with Granddaughter Rose....it is also with granddaughter Tatiana.P138...Granddaughter wrongly identified as Rose..it should be Tatiana.Apart from that I also agree with what a previous reviewer stated. The 80-90's is covered off in just 20 pages and more should have been devoted to this period. Then there is the foreword by Nan A. Talese where she mentions that in New York most people respected her privacy,except for certain photographers...It seems hypocritical to have this comment then have the front cover and 15 pages credited to the photographer that Mrs Onassis had the most problems with. In addition to that we have seen these photos over and over again in book after book.
