Iron Rose

The Story of Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy and Her Dynasty

De: Cindy Adams

Narrado por: Cindy Adams, Susan Crimp

Iron Rose takes an intimate look at the incredible life of Rose Kennedy—head of the Kennedy dynasty and one of the 20th century's most influential women—and her nine famous children. A riveting account of the power behind America's political throne for several decades, Iron Rose reveals the secrets behind the triumphs and tragedies of the renowned "Queen Mother of Camelot." It chronicles her life—from a mayor's daughter in Boston and her marriage to the multimillionaire ambassador to Great Britain—to the birth of her children and becoming the mother of a president. Never before had there been such a world-famous matriarch—a constant pillar of strength, guided by her faith in both her family and her religion—a woman who had given so much and yet had so much taken away.

Don't Do It!!!

This book broke a personal record- the biggest waste of time and a credit both in one book. There is no new information here- you have probably read every bit of the trivia, slime and innuendo in this book in the National Enquirer. What's really bad is the Enquire probably told it better. The narrartor is a drama queen and you finish the book feeling like you need a shower.
