    Profoundly Disturbing
    JFK was my very first bona fide hero, and Bobby was a near second. I bought into the entire Kennedy myth, as did my dear late mother, who died at age 47 and I’m so glad she knew none of this. I could not put this book down, but quite literally went into a strong depression during and after reading it. It is well researched, well written, and as I said in my headline, profoundly disturbing. It is beyond comprehension what the women involved with almost every Kennedy male went through, how they were not believed, how their reputations were deliberately destroyed, and so much more. If you read this book, prepare to be upset. There is no other way I can describe it. And for those who want to connect this with a certain political party, I wish it was that easy. It goes far beyond simple politics!

    Thank goodness my grandfather died before all this was known
    President Kennedy was idolized in my grandfather’s home. Pictures, a small shrine, totally admired. I was 10 when JFK was assassinated, and believed him to be a hero. This book was an eye opener, a horrifying true story of the sugar-coated bill of goods we’ve all been sold. The blatant disrespect involved in jumping on a young girl in Jackie’s bedroom? Horrifying, and only the beginning. JFK Jr. made every careless, thoughtless, illegal maneuver possible to destroy 2 young women, and himself, on the night of the crash. Bobby, who I always thought was the “good” brother, used the same playbook.My husband told me to do deep breathing before I had a heart attack at the lies I’ve bought into my entire life.Beautifully written, horrifying, and so very sad.

    It was difficult to put this book down. I lived through most of this history and the truth behind the scenes are mind-blowing. It was worth buying!

    Muito bem escrito e com uma implacável pesquisa, “Ask not” focaliza a dor de tantas mulheres que, finalmente, tiveram suas vidas valorizadas, não predadas ou descartadas. Esta obra é a plataforma perfeita para a necessária implosão de Camelot.

    A very good,well researched book of the other side of the Kennedy dynesty..It is about time someone told the story of their shocking treatment of women.Both their wives and anyvwomen associated with them suffered at their hands,The had the money,and the political clout to have it all covered up.A fascinating story told by Maureen Callaghan ,who was brave enough to tell the tale.
