Well written and researched without gossipy, invasive passages, this is the lovely story of Jacqueline Kennedy, her life with John F. Kennedy, her grace under pressure when tragedy seemed to be abundant, her love of their children, and the very special relationship she had with her son.

There are delightful, heart-warming stories of JFK Jr. and the love his father had. A frequent visitor to his father's oval White House office, he hid under the desk, and made himself right at home with those who sat round a negotiating table.

The love received lasted him a short life time. Always one to push the envelope in courting dangerous situations, tragically he, his wife and her sister died when 38 year old JFK Jr, en route to Martha's Vineyard, flew his plane during a heavy fog, creating problematic spacial abilities to judge how to right the plane.

This is an intimate look at America's first family. You may learn more than you want to know. I can't imagine what it is like to be lavished with all the money you could possibly want and the adoration of millions. What I DO know is I would never want to change places with anyone in this family. The reading of this book was riveting to me with clear descriptions of the emotional dynamics within and in between John F., Jackie, John Jr., Caroline, Aristotle and the rest of the Kennedy family. If you are interested in America's first family, you will certainly enjoy the read. The narrator, Robertson Dean, has a wonderful soothing voice. ( )

The Good Son: JFK Jr. and the Mother He Loved by Christopher Andersen is compelling reading and great fun. I think I have read too much about the Kennedys. I am Kennedy-ed out. The principal thing that I came away with from this book was the great love Jackie and John had for one another. And great respect for one another. I was touched by their mutual love. I can strongly recommend the book if you still have room for another Kennedy book. ( )
