review 1: This wasn't bad although a bit slapdash with the editing process, I think. My biggest gripe with it was the amount of times spaces were left out of words. This happened the whole way through and was irritating. Careless, too. Like twentyeight-room, TimesHerald, socialregister, seventeeen-yearold page.Forward was used in place of foreword and wale in place of wail which is pretty dire then a caption under a photo continued in the preceding text which made for some confusion.There were some photos I'd not seen before in it which was nice and it was interesting to learn more about her going to work for the publisher to keep her busy. The interest in her clearly still endures, that's for sure.
review 2: I really enjoyed this book, but I didn't really learn anything
... more new, just pretty much what I already knew about her life, but I did enjoy what the author wrote. The book spent much time talking about her White House restoration, and then her fight to keep Grand Central Station from demolition. There is some information about her jobs with both Viking Press, and Doubleday. If you don't remember much about Jacqueline's life, this is a good refresher. less
