show moreA United States Secret Service Agent from 1958 to 1975, Clint Hill was assigned to First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy and was in the motorcade in Dallas on November 22, 1963, when President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. For his courage and swift actions that day, Hill received the nation's highest civilian award for bravery.
Recently, while preparing to sell his home, Clint discovered an old steamer trunk in his garage containing forgotten photos, handwritten notes, personal gifts, and treasured mementos from the trips on which he accompanied Jackie Kennedy as her personal Secret Service agent. These trips took the pair through Paris, London, India, Pakistan, Greece, Morocco, Mexico, South America, and more, during which Jackie Kennedy became, according to Hill, "one of the best ambassadors the United States has ever had."From the tender moments, the private laughs, the wild adventures, and the deep affection he shared with one of the world's most iconic women, Hill provides new insight into the intensely private figure he always called "Mrs. Kennedy" and who always called him "Mr. Hill." Hill also reveals startling details about how traveling helped them both heal during the excruciating and grief-filled weeks and months following the assassination of President Kennedy. He writes of the year he spent protecting Mrs. Kennedy after the assassination, a time in his life he has always been reluctant to speak about.
