Kennedy's election as president of the United States, this book is a revealing and intimate portrait of a leader, husband, and father as seen through the lens of Cecil Stoughton, the first official White House photographer. Stoughton's close rapport with the president and first lady gave him extraordinary access to the Oval Office, the Kennedys' private quarters and homes, to state dinners, cabinet meetings, diplomatic trips, and family holidays.</p> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-pagination: none; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-line-height-alt: 8.05pt" class=MsoNormal> </P> <P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-pagination: none; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-line-height-alt: 8.05pt" class=MsoNormal>Drawing on Stoughton's unparalleled body of photographs, most rarely or never before reproduced, and supported by a deeply thoughtful narrative by political historian Richard Reeves, <I>Portrait of Camelot </I>is an unprecedented portrayal of the power, politics, and warmly personal aspects of Camelot's 1,036 days. <BR><BR></P>DVD INCLUDED: packaged with a DVD created exclusively for this book, containing color and black-and-white film footage Stoughton created of the Kennedy family in the White House, in Hyannis Port, and on holidays.<BR><BR>Praise for <I>Portrait of Camelot:<BR><BR></I>"Like the TV series Mad Men, this book is also a remarkable period piece . . . informative and beautiful."<I> --Publishers Weekly</I> <BR><BR>"This informative and beautiful book, which shouldn't stay on the coffee table, includes a DVD with film footage of the Kennedy family on vacation." <BR><I>--Publishers Weekly <BR></I><BR>"If you care about Camelot, this is a book you won't want to miss, a perfect commemoration of a presidency that happened what seems like a very long time ago." <BR><I>--Courier-Journal<br></I><BR>
