“Could there ever be a more explosive, astounding even, portrait of John F. Kennedy, than what we learn in bestselling author and Kennedy historian Laurence Leamer’s new book, Ladies Man?” —Boston Herald
“Titillating yet troubling, Leamer’s provocative exposé resonates in today’s Epstein Files and #MeToo culture of political exposure.” —Booklist
“An insightful history of a president’s tawdry private life.” —Kirkus
“From Boston boyhood to his assassination in Dallas, JFK’s love life was prolific—and reckless. Laurence Leamer’s Ladies’ Man captures the story of JFK’s addiction to women so frankly, yet with such human understanding. I doubt Laurence Leamer’s new account can be bettered. Once started, you will have to read on to the tragic end.” —Nigel Hamilton, New York Times bestselling author of JFK: Reckless Youth
“Few people know more about the Kennedys than Laurence Leamer, and with Ladies Man, he adds a compelling new dimension to JFK and his legacy. The book is both a fascinating journey into character and an important historical contribution to our mature understanding of that glittering era known as Camelot.” —Mark Olshaker, coauthor of Mindhunter, Journey Into Darkness and The Cases That Haunt Us
“Wonderfully researched and sensitively written, Ladies’ Man illustrates that JFK’s cold relationships with the women in his life perfectly mirrored his stony political calculations. You may think—as I did—that you know a lot about ‘Jack,’ but Ladies’ Man will make you reconsider everything about him.” —Gus Russo, co-author of Brothers in Arms
“Sensitive rather than salacious, this meticulously researched and engagingly written accounting focuses on how JFK’s often primitive but also complicated relationships with women shaped the career and revealed the character of the charismatic martyred president whose legacy of sex appeal being central to political appeal still shapes American politics.” —Scott Farris, author of Inga: Kennedy’s Great Love
“Those of us who have followed the prolific work of Laurence Leamer knew it would eventually lead to Ladies’ Man, this intimately revealing life of John F. Kennedy and the women around him From decades of research, he knows the players and the sagas, which are all here in Leamer’s typically riveting style.” —Mark Seal
