Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fair. Cecil Beaton (Jacket Photo). (illustrator). [12], 536, [4] pages. Illustrations. Index. DJ has small edge tears, tear at top of DJ spine. The Joseph P. Kennedy, Jr. Foundation received all the royalties form the initial sale of this book so that its work in aid of the mentally retarded may continue undiminished. Rose Elizabeth Fitzgerald Kennedy, Countess of the Holy Roman Church (July 22, 1890 - January 22, 1995) was an American philanthropist, socialite, and a member of the Kennedy family. She was deeply embedded in the "lace curtain" Irish Catholic community in Boston, where her father John F. Fitzgerald was mayor. Kennedy was the wife of businessman and investor Joseph P. Kennedy Sr., who was United States Ambassador to the United Kingdom, formally known as Ambassador to the Court of St. James's in the UK. Their nine children included President John F. Kennedy, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and Senator Ted Kennedy. In 1951 she was ennobled by Pope Pius XII, becoming the sixth American woman to be granted the rank of Papal countess. Rose Kennedy stated that she felt completely fulfilled as a full-time homemaker. In her 1974 autobiography, Times to Remember, she wrote, "I looked on child rearing not only as a work of love and a duty, but as a profession that was fully as interesting and challenging as any honorable profession in the world and one that demanded the best I could bring to it. What greater aspiration and challenge are there for a mother than the hope of raising a great son or daughter?" Derived from a Publishers Weekly review: Matriarch Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy's autobiography is by turns conventional, intimately revealing, tough-minded and touching. She began her political life at the age of five, when her father, John Francis Fitzgerald, was elected to Congress; he later became mayor of Boston. Rose's children--Edward Kennedy, Eunice Shriver, Patricia Lawford, Jean Smith--call her ``the best politician in our family,'' and indeed, she relives her prominent role in accompanying her husband, Joseph Kennedy, FDR's ambassador to the Court of St. James, to Great Britain as war clouds gathered over Europe, and her vigorous campaigning for her sons, John and Bobby, in 1960 and 1968. Strewn with quotes from letters, diaries and recollections, this conversational memoir is particularly interesting when Rose is discussing JFK's illnesses and injuries, raising her nine children, her mentally retarded daughter, Rosemary, and the deep religious faith that sustained her through personal tragedies. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing.
