Christopher Andersen Books

She is the heiress to a legacy of power, wealth, unfulfilled promise, and tragedy. Her father was assassinated before a shocked world, altering history forever. Her mother became an iconic figure of style and courage, while her brother, a promising Kennedy, died in a plane crash near their mother's estate. Caroline Kennedy, the last surviving member of Camelot's First Family, has remained largely enigmatic—until now. Christopher Andersen, known for his bestselling works on the Kennedys, draws on significant sources to present a compelling portrait of Caroline, the young wife and mother tasked with upholding her family's legacy. The book reveals new insights into life in the Kennedy White House and the events surrounding JFK's assassination from Caroline's unique perspective. It explores her surreal years as the stepdaughter of Aristotle Onassis, her struggles with personal challenges, and the stalkers who instilled fear in her life. It also delves into her efforts to forge her own identity amid her family's shadow, her loves, and her marriage. The narrative addresses her coping mechanisms for the profound losses of her father, mother, and brother, as well as the ongoing challenges faced by the Kennedy family. Ultimately, it reflects on how she raises her children and imparts lessons about love and loss, offering a moving account of a woman who has not only survived but thrived despite her heartaches.

Together, Bill and Hillary Clinton scaled the heights of power and prestige, only to have his wantonly reckless behaviour bring them to the brink of personal and political ruin. Despite the billions of words that have been written about Bill and Hillary, the true nature of their relationship remains a jealously guarded secret. Until now. Among the revelations: What really goes on in the private residence at the White House; never-before-known details of their courtship; from Barbra Streisand to Monica, the hundreds of women in Bill's life - and how Hillary has handled them; the heartbreaking toll the President's self-destructive acts have taken on both women, his wife, and daughter Chelsea. Sex, money, power, lies and scandal. Each has played a role in the making and unmaking of the Clinton legacy. Yet whatever the judgement of history, the continuing saga of Bill and Hillary is - above all else - a compelling, and unique love story.

"Diana's Boys revealed the powerful bond between the teenaged princes, and how it strengthened even more in the wake of their mother's tragic death. Now, twenty years later, Queen Elizabeth II is in her mid-nineties, Prince Charles is in his seventies, and all eyes are turned increasingly toward William and Harry again. Andersen examines how the Queen's behind-the-scenes maneuvering to mold her grandsons in the Windsor image after Diana's death, and her expectations of William as the future king, played out. He questions whether the brothers' famously close relationship can survive Harry's departure from the Royal Family - the first time this has happened since their great-great-uncle King Edward abdicated the throne to marry a divorcâee. He delves into the impact sisters-in-law Kate and Meghan have had on each other as well as on their princes, and how marriage and fatherhood have changed the brothers and, in some ways, also driven a wedge between them. Andersen also looks with an honest eye at how the princes and their wives have been continuously buffeted by scandal - including headline-making allegations of bullying, racism, betrayal, and emotional abuse that has pushed more than one royal to the brink of self-destruction."--
