About the author

Among Raymond Sinibaldi's passions are baseball and history. His first book, The Babe in Red Stockings was published in 1997 and co-authored with David Hickey and Kerry Keene. A chronology of Babe Ruth’s time with the Red Sox, it gives an in depth account of the first five years of his remarkable career. It would be fifteen years for his second book Images of Fenway Park (2012) again co-authored with Hickey and Keene.
Since then, he has produced one a year: Spring Training in Bradenton and Sarasota (2013), 1967 Red Sox, The Impossible Dream Season (2014), 1975 Red Sox American League Champions (2015). In 2016 came 61 Motivational Stories for Every Coach of Every Sport, Co-authored with longtime baseball coaches Craig Faulkner and Joe Komoaroski.
The year 2017, produced John F Kennedy in New England, which was actually fifty years in the making. Captivated with the fact that his maternal grandfather, William F Kelly, served as Kennedy’s East Boston campaign secretary in 1946 and 1952; the seven year old Sinibaldi's passion was lit during Kennedy’s bid for the presidency. Devastated by the death of the President, he grew with a penchant for anything Kennedy, which would ultimately lead him to the volunteer position of docent at the JFK Library from 1989 through 1992. With the centennial of John F Kennedy’s birth approaching, Sinibaldi reflected upon the formative years of his youth and the impact President Kennedy had on his life. Within that reflection, he realized how much JFK’s life had marked and shaped his own. Thus giving birth to John F Kennedy in New England; in which he captures JFK at home with his family and friends doing what he loved the most: sailing at the tiller of a ship, playing golf, piling kids on a golf cart for a ride to the candy store, simply reading and being President.
In 2018 Sinibaldi returned to his baseball roots with Modern Images of Fenway Park. With 90 photographs never before published, this takes a fresh look at America’s most beloved ballpark. Included will be insight into the making of the Ted Williams Jimmy Fund Statue, for which Sinibaldi served as consultant to sculptor Franc Talarico.
On June 1, 2019 Globe Pequot Publishers released Jackie's Newport; America's First Lady and the City by the Sea. Jackie's Newport provides a fresh look at America's First Lady, unveiling the inner strength, courage and dignity of the woman who still captivates and inspires people around the globe. All woven around the backdrop of Newport, one of her favorite places.
A month later Arcadia Publishing and the History Press unveiled Sinibaldi's John F Kennedy, From Florida to the Moon. Just in time to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Neil Armstrong's "Giant leap for Mankind," Sinibaldi spins the tale of the nascent days of America's space program and JFK's relationship with the Mercury 7.
A regular guest on WBZ radio’s Jordan Rich Show for many years, Sinibaldi was also a part of the special Baseball From the Beginning, A History of Spring Training in Florida (see youtube links) He has twice spoken at the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.
Combining skills honed by 26 years in the classroom and an unbridled passion to his subject matter, Sinibaldi is available for book talks and presentations, on any of his books, at your library or organization. He can be reached at

- Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2019Just in time for summer vacation, this is the perfect summer read.
The story of Jackie Kennedy, First Lady: the woman who enthralled the nation and the world. You will be moved and amazed by this woman who embodied class and dignity when most of us would have crumbled. The book chronicles her time as the First Lady and the many heartaches she endures, including a detailed description of how she handled herself, her family, the nation and the world in the hours following her husbands assassination.
Read her story, and fall in love with Jackie all over again.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2019This story is beautifully written. A read for every young woman. The author does an excellent job in conveying - how with grace and dignity, a Lady Jackie Kennedy carried our nation through one of the most difficult times in its history, all the while having to deal with her own pain and sadness. I clearly saw how Newport was her safe haven, which she carried in her heart when not physically there. Mary
- Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2019I absolutely loved this book and being able to learn about Jackie as I was not born! So it was en excellent way to learn more about her and her bravery and how she dealt with so much at such a young age.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2021Very disappointing. Not a good read.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2020I loved this book about Jackie and her wedding at Hammersmith Farm! I am a Rhode Island resident and lived in Newport. One of my cousins was married at Hammersmith before it was sold to a private owner. We sat in the living room during the reception surrounded by personal photographs of Jack and Jackie (many that are pictured in the book). Anyone who has Newport on his/her list to visit in the near future should read this book. It names all her favorite spots almost as sight seeing guide with a great story. It takes you through Jackie’s journey of love and loss with Newport as the backdrop.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2021I.definitely have mixed feelings about this book. First, it was certainly interesting, well researched and well written. Since the book is titled Jackie's Newport, I had expected it to revolve around the Newport locations relevant to Jackie's life, which it does for a while, but only for about the first half of the book. The rest, and nearly the entire second half of the book, focuses entirely on JFK's assassination and the days that follow, all taking place in Texas and DC. Newport is almost never mentioned again. Again, it's well researched and interesting, but it's well-trodden ground, and completely removed from the book's title.
For those of us familiar with Newport, I'm sure the expectation was that this book would be an in-depth examination of the people and places connected to Jackie in Newport. Unfortunately the author skimmed the surface of that topic before heading off in a completely different direction. Was there not enough information away to fill an entire book on the subject?
- Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2019I try to read all things possible about Jackie. This book does tell a story, but the poor writing makes reading the book a trying, arduous experience. But, if you are interested in Jackie, this probably (or possibly) should be included in your list of things to read about her.
