Description: "'Do you know what the secret to happily-ever-after is?' Janet Bouvier Auchincloss would ask her daughters Jackie and Lee during their tea time.  'Money and power,' she would say.  If the Bouvier women personified beauty, style and fashion, it was their lust for money and status that drove them to seek out powerful men.  Based on hundreds of new interviews with friends and family of the Bouviers as well as letters and journals, J. Randy Taraborrelli paints an extarordinary psychological portrait of two famous sisters and their ferociously ambitious mother,"--page [4] of cover.
