THE PRIVATE PASSION OF JACKIE KENNEDY ONASSIS - PORTRAIT OF A RIDER by Vicky Moon
"For a little girl longing for her elusive father, a pony offered
companionship and comfort. As a political wife aching for the presence of
her husband and burdened with the crushing pressures as first lady, riding a
horse brought sanctuary. The desperately lonely celebrity widow eventually
found that time spent alone with her horses brought anonymity and solace."
With never before seen photos of Jackie riding peacefully alone, winning
ribbon after ribbon, and enjoying leisurely rides with her children,
Jackie's "private passion" and the strength and serenity she drew from that
passion are now fully and magnificently documented. This is a candid and
personal account of a young Jackie's introduction to the world of horses, of
the life lessons and truths she learned from the sport and its people, of
her foray into the public eye on her husband's arm, and of the retreat into
privacy and peace that riding allowed her.
