"The facts of their lives are the stuff of legend. They are America's closest thing to royalty, and their tragedies and triumphs have fascinated the public for decades. Few families have been more famous, more photographed, more admired and vilified than the Kennedys. And for three generations Kennedy men have been a law unto themselves." "Here, for the first time, is the truth about: the secret love affairs and lurid sex scandals that have been whispered about for years; the private misfortunes; the tragedies that turned them into American heroes; and the appalling personal behavior that has left a long list of victims in its wake. It is also the story of Joseph Kennedy Sr.'s unparalleled rise to fame and fortune - the tale of the ruthless, reckless man who possessed a fatal flaw. For Joe Kennedy and his sons, winning was all that mattered, and the Kennedys created their own rules. This way of life was passed on to the third generation, with tragic results." "In THE KENNEDY MEN: Three Generations of Sex, Scandal and Secrets, New York Times bestselling biographer and social historian Nellie Bly examines the facts and the fictions about America's most famous family in a book that is both illuminating and intimate. It's all here: the glamour, the scandals, and the shocking revelations." "From the historic union of Joseph Kennedy and Rose Fitzgerald through the controversial divorces, the barroom escapades, including Teddy's famous "table-top consummation" and the alleged Good Friday rape, Bly chronicles the lives of three generations of reckless and remarkable Kennedys - men who were unable to cope with the curse and cachet of the family name...and the women who loved them. Written with Nellie Bly's trademark candor and revealing insights, this is a provocative, compulsively readable book that dispels the myths and sheds new light on America's most fascinating and complex family."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
