Pretty good account of the life of a member of the Kennedy clan. Shows how having a priveleged life can be of no service to you if you aren't able to take proper advantage of it. Lots of pictures and seems to be an honest account.

What a book!
Written from the heart, Mr. Lawford pulls no punches as he describes life as a Kennedy cousin, his pride and the pressure of being part of the family, and his descent into drugs and alcoholism.

I have always had an interest in the Kennedys and have read many books about them. This book gave a great insite to how the second generation delt with the problems and the expectations that were given to them because of the family they were born into. I enjoys it alot.
