William Manchester

Controversy over the Kennedy book
Jacqueline Kennedy originally filed suit to prevent the publication of Manchester's Death of a President, a work that she had previously authorized. The suit was resolved in 1967; it was reported that Manchester dropped certain passages dealing with details of Kennedy family life. Satirist Paul Krassner published a piece at that time entitled "The Parts Left Out of the Kennedy Book," which gained national attention by imagining censored material of a far more scandalous nature than anything that could possibly have been the case.
