New Releases by Clint Hill

"Sparked by long-forgotten gifts and memorabilia discovered in an old trunk, the now ninety-year-old Hill reminisces about private moments, shared laughs, and crazy adventures with one of the world's most iconic women during her time as First Lady, and the excruciating year following the assassination of her husband. After all, he notes that 'when you travel with someone, you experience things that can't be fully appreciated by anyone who wasn't there'"--

Während er sich darauf vorbereitet, sein Haus zu verkaufen, entdeckt der pensionierte Geheimdienstagent Clint Hill einen alten Überseekoffer in der Garage. Als er und seine Frau Lisa McCubbin diesen zum ersten Mal seit fünfzig Jahren öffnen, finden sie vergessene Fotos, handgeschriebene Notizen, persönliche Geschenke und wertvolle Erinnerungsstücke von den Reisen, auf denen Hill First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy begleitete und die sie von Paris nach London, durch Indien, Pakistan, Griechenland, Marokko, Mexiko und Südamerika führten. In seinem neuesten Buch erzählt er zum ersten Mal von der Tiefe ihrer Beziehung, von besonderen Momenten, privaten Lachern, den wilden Abenteuern und der tiefen Zuneigung, die zwischen ihnen bestand. Auch enthüllt Hill, wie er Jackie Kennedy nach der Ermordung von Präsident John F. Kennedy im November 1963 beschützte – und wie ihnen die Reisen beim Heilen halfen. »Meine Reisen mit Mrs. Kennedy« offenbart eine persönliche Seite der Geschichte, wie sie noch nie zuvor erzählt wurde, und lässt das Leben einer der ikonischsten und schönsten Frauen des 20. Jahrhunderts atemberaubend Revue passieren.

"Secret Service agent Clint Hill ... reflects on his seventeen years protecting the most powerful office in the nation. Hill walked alongside Presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard M. Nixon, and Gerald R. Ford, seeing them through a long, tumultuous era-the Cold War; the Cuban Missile Crisis; the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Robert F. Kennedy; the Vietnam War; Watergate; and the resignations of Spiro Agnew and Richard M. Nixon"--Provided by publisher.

Secret Service agent Clint Hill reveals the stories behind the iconic images of the five tragic days surrounding President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in this 60th anniversary edition of the New York Times bestseller. On November 22, 1963, three shots were fired in Dallas, President John F. Kennedy was assassinated, and the world stopped for four days. For an entire generation, it was the end of an age of innocence. That evening, a photo ran on the front pages of newspapers across the world, showing a Secret Service agent jumping on the back of the presidential limousine in a desperate attempt to protect the President and Mrs. Kennedy. That agent was Clint Hill. Now Hill commemorates the sixtieth anniversary of the tragedy with this stunning book containing more than 150 photos, each accompanied by his incomparable insider account of those terrible days. A story that has taken Hill half a century to tell, this is a “riveting, stunning narrative” (Herald & Review, Illinois) of personal and historical scope. Besides the unbearable grief of a nation and the monumental consequences of the event, the death of JFK was a personal blow to a man sworn to protect the first family, and who knew, from the moment the shots rang out in Dallas, that nothing would ever be the same.

A former Secret Service agent recounts his shared experiences with the former First Lady before and after her husband's death, discussing the birth of John, Jr., and Jackie's first encounters with Aristotle Onassis.
