Críticas:

"I thought I would never read another Kennedy book.... Anyone who cares about American history and the heart of the American people will want to read Dear Mrs. Kennedy." --Laurence Leamer, bestselling author of The Kennedy Women and Sons of Camelot "You will not be able to put down this deeply moving, inspiring book." --Donald Spoto, author of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis: A Life "A book for every bedside...These carefully selected letters of condolence take us back to a moment in history we would do well to revisit." --Frances Kiernan, author of The Last Mrs. Astor "A profound reflection into the eternal questions about God, the meaning of life, and how we as mere mortals deal with senseless, inexplicable tragedy." --Thomas Maier, author of The Kennedys: America's Emeralds Kings "Often-intense revelations of personal emotion...in reaction to an event that truly shocked the world." --Carl Sferrazza Anthony, author of The Kennedy White House

Reseña del editor:

'My dearest Jackie, you crystallize like a diamond all that he stood for. The two of you showed us what heights could be reached - and you Jackie are showing us how those heights can be maintained. Could you possibly give him a more fitting tribute?' - Phil Geyelin (Pulitzer Prize-winning "Washington Post" editor) and wife Sherry Geyelin. In the weeks and months following the assassination of her husband, Jacqueline Kennedy received over 800,000 letters. The impact of President Kennedy's death was so immense that people from all walks of life wrote to Jacqueline Kennedy, sharing with her their feelings of sympathy, sorrow, grief and hope. These letters have been tucked away in the Kennedy Library's archives for almost fifty years. Filled with emotion, patriotic sentiment, and insight, they are a poignant time capsule of one of the seminal events of the twentieth century. "Dear Mrs Kennedy" is a diverse portrait, not only of the aftermath of the assassination, but of the Kennedy mystique that continues to captivate the world.
