  A guilty pleasure, just looking at pictures of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. I believe she would not appreciate this book being published, yet so many of us continue to be fascinated by this woman. So there it is. I give in and admit the following: I enjoyed looking at these pictures, particularly those focused on her time at Viking and later at Doubleday.

  The book was lovely. I could look at photos of Jackie all day, especially from her New York years. She was the definition of New York chic. I can't think of anyone today who can pull of a casual elegance that Jackie could.

  Shortly after the assassination of JFK, Jackie Kennedy moved to NYC. She remained there for the rest of her life. This collection of photographs celebrates her life in the city as a mother, book editor, style icon, and most of all, a New Yorker. Fun book.

  In many ways, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was a quintessential New Yorker. In a city that prides itself on style and anonymity for those who seek it, Jackie had both.
  
  No matter how casual the event, she was always appropriately dressed, never overdressed nor wearing conspicuous jewelry - except of course on black-tie occasions. When she lived on Fifth Avenue and worked as an editor at Doubleday, she would walk through Central Park on her way to the office wearing a silk scarf on her head and large sunglasses, wishing not to be noticed. People respected her privacy and (except for certain photographers) did not invade it. One day in the elevator at Doubleday, a fellow passenger looked at her and exclaimed "You are Jackie Onassis!" Without a beat, she responded "No I'm not." This was typical of her. And she had a brilliant, and rather wicked, sense of humor.

  NEW YORK JACKIE is a photo-history of the years Jackie Kennedy lived and worked in the big Apple. Taken by a number of photographers, the pix capture her strolling down streets, biking, talking with friends, at work, walking with Caroline and John Jr., attending a Broadway musical, etc. The images date from the mid-1960s to the mid-1990s. Whatever the circumstances, they capture a poised, charming and lovely woman...with a dazzling smile.

  Outstanding book! Anyone who loves Jackie will adore the photos in this book.
  
  This is an intimate portrait of one of America's leading ladies, captured in brief glimpses. These photos are as common as Jackie walking down the street with members of her family, sharing ice cream cones with her children or as lovely as Jackie at the opera, dressed in her finest. Even in the most mundane circumstances, you cannot deny that this woman had a style all her own. She was a survivor in so many ways.

  Lovely collection of photographs of Jackie throughout the City. Well bound and attractively presented.
  A perfect addition to my collection of Jackie O books.
