One special book

I found a most interesting book last week called One Special Summer by Lee Bouvier and Jacqueline Bouvier (as in Kennedy).  It's a journal of their grand tour of Europe when they were 18 and 22, respecitvely.  They wrote it for their Mom, in part to thank her for letting them go off on such an adventure on their own.  It's a fun book to look through - the illustrations, photos, and beautifully written text - from the time when it wasn't de regueur to tromp through Europe at some point during your college years.  And it beats any scrapbook I've ever seen.
