Protected by Brodart dust jacket cover.<br /><p>Controversial book in which Lincoln discussed the relationship or lack of between President Kennedy and Vice President Johnson. Lincoln's first book a best seller entitled "My Twelve Years with John F. Kennedy" did not discuss the relationship. </p><p>After the assassination Lincoln was entrusted to catalog the JFK possessions from both his Senate and White House service. Lincoln was ultimately accused by Kennedy's children Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg and John F. Kennedy Jr. of stealing and selling off many items. </p><p>"It is now clear that Mrs. Lincoln took advantage of her position as our father's secretary and later as custodian of objects intended for the John F. Kennedy Library by taking home with her countless documents and objects that had belonged to our father and the United States Government" they said in a statement.</p><p>"In so doing Mrs. Lincoln breached both the public trust and that of our family. The number of items she took for herself and the intensely personal character of many of them is overwhelming."</p><p>From Wikipedia.</p><p>Lincoln had always aimed to work on Capitol Hill for a future president and she achieved this ambition in 1953 by becoming personal secretary to the newly-elected senator from Massachusetts John F. Kennedy. She proved suitable for the job and remained close to the president up to the day of his assassination in Dallas when she was traveling in the same motorcade. She made it a point to visit Kennedy's grave at Arlington National Cemetery every year afterward on the anniversary of his death.</p><p>Her personal position about this historic event was the following: in a letter written on 7th October 1994 she wrote:</p><p>In 1968 she wrote a book <i>Kennedy and Johnson</i> in which she wrote that President Kennedy had told her that Lyndon B. Johnson would be replaced as Vice President of the United States. Lincoln wrote of that November 19 1963 conversation just before the assassination of President Kennedy</p><p>Lincoln went on to write "I was fascinated by this conversation and wrote it down verbatim in my diary. Now I asked 'Who is your choice as a running-mate' 'He looked straight ahead and without hesitating he replied 'at this time I am thinking about Governor Terry Sanford of North Carolina. But it will not be Lyndon.'"</p><p>According to the National Archives Lincoln gave away or sold many of Kennedy's documents and artifacts that she had been entrusted with managing by the Kennedy family after Kennedy's assassination. In 2005 a legal settlement was reached that enabled the National Archives the Kennedy Library and Caroline Kennedy to recover thousands of pages of documents and other items. Lincoln died at Georgetown University Hospital in 1995 after complications that followed surgery for cancer. Her ashes were placed in a niche at a columbarium in Arlington National Cemetery.</p> Holt Rinehart Winston hardcover
