It is where, for a hundred years, America's most storied political family has come to celebrate, bond, play, and, also, grieve. It is also the setting of so many events we remember: JFK giving his presidential acceptance speech, Jackie speaking with a \u003ci\u003eLife\u003c\/i\u003e magazine reporter just days after her husband's assassination, Senator Edward Kennedy seeking refuge after the Chappaquiddick crash, Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger tying the knot--and even Conor Kennedy courting pop star Taylor Swift. Anyone who has lived in, worked at, or visited the Kennedy compound in Hyannis Port has had a front-row view to history. Now, with extraordinary access to the Kennedy family--and featuring more than fifty rarely-seen images--journalist Kate Storey gives us a remarkably intimate and poignant look at the rhythms of an American dynasty. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing from more than a hundred conversations with family members, friends, neighbors, household and security staff, Storey delivers a rich and textured account of the Kennedys' lives in their summer refuge. From the 1920s, when Rose and Joseph P. Kennedy rented then bought a home known as The Malcolm Cottage, to today, when many Kennedys have purchased their own homes surrounding what's now called The Big House, this book delivers many surprising revelations across the decades, including what matriarch Rose considered the family's greatest tragedy, the rivalrous relationship between brothers Jack and Joe, details about Jackie's life at the compound, and previously unknown glimpses into JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette's loving and ill-fated relationship. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFascinating, engaging, and illuminating, \u003ci\u003eWhite House by the Sea\u003c\/i\u003e provides a sweeping history of an American dynasty that has left an indelible mark on our nation's politics and culture.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKate Storey is the senior features editor at \u003ci\u003eRolling Stone\u003c\/i\u003e.
