Product Review

In this ABC News special, with Diane Sawyer reporting, you hear actual interviews that former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy recorded for history. This program also features Sawyer's exclusive interview with Caroline Kennedy.

These never-before-heard interviews, which Jacqueline Kennedy recorded soon after her husband's death, have remained strictly sealed - until now. The more than eight hours of official audio recordings were made with one of America's most respected historians, Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. From that point on, the famously private former First Lady steadfastly refused to publicly discuss her memories of those years.

This ABC News special coincides with the September 14th publication of the book, "Jacqueline Kennedy: Historic Conversations on Life with John F. Kennedy", which contains unedited and complete recordings of the oral history interviews.

The revealing conversations include Jacqueline Kennedy's impressions of life with her husband, President John F. Kennedy, their life in the White House, and the extraordinary events that shaped the Kennedy Administration and the world -- from their early years on the campaign trail to the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Bay of Pigs and the President's last days in the White House.

The interviews also reflect Mrs. Kennedy's evolving sense of herself and her role as First Lady, as she talks about her family, world leaders and life in the White House.
