Download or read book JFK and Mary Meyer A Love Story written by Jesse Kornbluth and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 165 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A breezy, tantalizing view of the woman who, through wiles and a complete lack of scruples, briefly transcended the role of presidential mistress—and may have paid for it with her life.” —The New York Times John F. Kennedy said he needed sex every three days or he got a headache. In the White House, he never had a headache. Kennedy met Mary Pinchot in 1935, when he was eighteen and she was sixteen. Twenty years later, when she was living in Virginia and married to Cord Meyer, a high-ranking CIA official, she was Jack and Jackie Kennedy’s next-door neighbor. In 1962, she was an artist, divorced, living in Washington—and Kennedy’s first serious romance. Mary Pinchot Meyer was more than a bedmate. She was Kennedy’s beacon light: his sole female adviser, spending mornings in the Oval Office, and, at night, discussing issues. After the 1964 election, Kennedy said, he would divorce Jackie and marry her. After the assassination, Mary didn’t believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, and she shared that view, loudly and often, in Washington’s most elite circles. Her ex-husband urged her to be silent, but when the report of the Warren Commission was released, she was even more loudly critical. On October 10, 1964, two days before her forty-forth birthday, as she walked in Georgetown, a man shot her in the head and the heart. That night, Mary's best friend called her sister. “Mary had a diary,” she said. “Get it.” The diary was filled with sketches, notes for paintings—and ten pages about an affair with an unnamed lover. Her sister burned it. In JFK and Mary Meyer: A Love Story, Jesse Kornbluth recreates the diary Mary might have written. Working from a timeline of Kennedy’s presidency and every documented account of their public relationship, he has written a high-octane thriller that tracks this secret, doomed romance—and invites readers to solve Mary’s murder.

Book excerpt: "What made Frank so interesting, and the reason why it has taken his death to write the full story, was that he was a man who was accepted by almost everyone. He traveled the world and met some of the wealthiest and most powerful men and women in government, business, and politics. He sang for the Queen of England and dined privately with the wife of the President of the United States. He partied with some of the deadliest organized criminals in America, and he had enough box office clout in Hollywood that he was frequently on what they call the A-List for parties in the mansions of the moguls. "I suppose that a religious extremist might talk of Frank as an occasion for sin waiting to hap-pen. He was intensely lonely and insecure, surrounding himself with tough guy sycophants, many of whom he had to pay to escort him. He engaged in sex with a
