SynopsisWhile preparing to sell his home, retired Secret Service agent Clint Hill uncovers an old trunk in the garage. When he and Lisa McCubbin; his coauthor on three previous books, pry it open for the first time in fifty years, they find forgotten photos, handwritten notes, personal gifts, and treasured mementos from the trips on which he accompanied First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy as her Secret Service agent-trips that took them from Paris to London, through India, Pakistan, Greece, Morocco, Mexico, and "three glorious weeks on the Amalfi Coast." During these journeys, Mrs. Kennedy became one of her husband's-and Americas-greatest assets: in Hills words and the opinion of many others, "one of the best ambassadors the United States has ever had." As each newfound treasure opens a floodgate of memories, Hill provides new insight into the intensely private woman he always called "Mrs. Kennedy" and who always called him "Mr. Hill." For the first time, he reveals the depth of the relationship that developed between them as they traveled around the globe, as well as startling details about how traveling helped them both heal during the excruciating period following the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in November 1963. Now in his nineties, Hill recounts the tender moments, private laughs, wild adventures, and deep affection he shared with one of the world's most iconic figures-and these memories are brought vividly to life alongside more than two hundred photographs, many previously unpublished. My Travels with Mrs. Kennedy takes the reader on a breathtaking journey, experiencing what it was like to travel with Jacqueline Kennedy as the entire world was falling in love with her., A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the authors of the #1 New York Times bestseller Mrs. Kennedy and Me comes another New York Times bestseller, which reveals never-before-told stories of Secret Service Agent Clint Hill's travels with Jacqueline Kennedy through Europe, Asia, and South America. Featuring more than two hundred rare and never-before-published photographs. While preparing to sell his home in Alexandria, Virginia, retired Secret Service agent Clint Hill uncovers an old steamer trunk in the garage, triggering a floodgate of memories. As he and Lisa McCubbin, his coauthor on three previous books, pry it open for the first time in fifty years, they find forgotten photos, handwritten notes, personal gifts, and treasured mementos from the trips on which Hill accompanied First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy as her Secret Service agent--trips that took them from Paris to London, through India, Pakistan, Greece, Morocco, Mexico, South America, and "three glorious weeks on the Amalfi Coast." During these journeys, Jacqueline Kennedy became one of her husband's--and America's--greatest assets; in Hill's words and the opinion of many others, "one of the best ambassadors the United States has ever had."
