Editorial Reviews

This compelling biographical series profiles three of the most dynamic, controversial, and ultimately tragic figures in American history. The story of a remarkable political dynasty, The Kennedys traces the lives of Joe, Rose, and their nine children, and reveals how Joe Kennedy marshaled the forces that helped put his son John in the White House. LBJ explores the life of Lyndon Baines Johnson from his early career as a New Deal supporter to his presidency, his sweeping domestic programs, and the tragic foreign policy blunders of the Vietnam War. Nixon chronicles the fateful combination of strengths and weaknesses that propelled him to the presidency and then brought him down.
