À propos de cet audio
A New York Times best seller
A major new biography of John F. Kennedy Jr. from a leading historian who was also a close friend, America’s Reluctant Prince is a deeply researched, personal, surprising, and revealing portrait of the Kennedy heir the world lost too soon.
Through the lens of their decades-long friendship and including exclusive interviews and details from previously classified documents, noted historian and New York Times best-selling author Steven M. Gillon examines John F. Kennedy Jr.’s life and legacy from before his birth to the day he died. Gillon covers the highs, the lows, and the surprising incidents, viewpoints, and relationships that John never discussed publicly, revealing the full story behind JFK Jr.'s complicated and rich life. In the end, Gillon proves that John’s life was far more than another tragedy - rather, it’s the true key to understanding both the Kennedy legacy and how America’s first family continues to shape the world we live in today.

Well done
Thoughtful, non-exploitive book that speaks to the person that was JFK Jr. Narration was as if the author was telling the story himself. The last paragraph of the story was oddly dissatisfying, as if the author needed to remind us, and himself, that his friend was just a man and not an icon, his life falling short of all the hopes that the public held for him. Then his last sentence brings you back to the personal loss, and you understand that it is the friend’s voice trying to retain his historian’s perspective and momentarily overstating the truth...that the shortened life of America’s son will always seem unfinished, it’s promise incomplete. And he is missed.
