Ellen Fitzpatrick brings back many memories in "Letters to Jackie: Condolences from a Grieving Nation." In the aftermath of John Kennedy's assassination over 800,000 letters were received. They all were read and answered by volunteers. Many are archived but have received little attention from scholars until now. Fitgerald has selected about 250 letters to share. She even has contacted the senders and includes a short sketch about each.
