ABOUT THE HILLS AND TRAVELS WITH MRS. KENNEDY

From the New York Times bestselling author of MRS. KENNEDY AND ME and FIVE PRESIDENTS comes MY TRAVELS WITH MRS. KENNEDY by Clint Hill and Lisa McCubbin Hill (on-sale October 11, 2022; hardcover), a collection of never-before-told stories and more than 200 rare and never-before-published photographs documenting Secret Service Agent Clint Hill's travels with Jacqueline Kennedy throughout Europe, Asia, and South America.

A 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.

MY TRAVELS WITH MRS. KENNEDY unveils a personal side of history that has never been told before and takes the reader on a breathtaking journey, experiencing what it was like for Clint Hill to travel with Jacqueline Kennedy as the entire world was falling in love with her.

STORY ON TRAVELS WITH MRS. KENNEDY FROM PEOPLR MAGAZINE

PEOPLE Exclusive: Jackie Kennedy's Secret Service Agent Reveals Their 'Indescribable Bond' and His Most Personal Memories Yet

Former Secret Service agent Clint Hill shares never-before-told stories and rare photos of the first lady in his new memoir, My Travels with Mrs. Kennedy

He's a Secret Service agent who served under five presidents - Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Ford - yet still to this day, one of the questions Clint Hill gets asked most often is: What was Jacqueline Kennedy really like?

As the first lady's dedicated Secret Service agent, Hill rarely left her side for four years. They shared an "almost indescribable bond," he says - a bond he explores in his new memoir, My Travels with Mrs. Kennedy, co-written with his wife, Lisa McCubbin Hill, and excerpted exclusively in this week's issue of PEOPLE. It's a sequel to their 2012 bestseller Mrs. Kennedy and Me, and his most personal book yet. The idea for the latest book came about three years ago, while he and Lisa were cleaning out his home in Alexandria, Virginia, to prepare it for sale. There, they discovered an old dusty steamer trunk which hadn't been opened for nearly 50 years.

Inside was a collection of photos, mementos and handwritten notes from his travels to Paris, Ravello, Pakistan, India, Venezuela, Morocco, Mexico and more with the woman he still calls "Mrs. Kennedy." The discovery brought back long ago memories - some magical, some very private, others very painful. A time capsule of his four years with the most famous woman in the world.
