Editorial Reviews

Review
History improves on itself! I never thought I'd want to read a book about JFK again....reads like a high-society thriller. -- Liz Smith, New York Post

Leaming's narrative soars....Masterful. -- Washington Post Book World

Product Description

"An absorbing and enjoyable book."—New York Times Book Review Drawing on new primary sources, this biography is the first to detail the influence of British history, literature, and culture—in particular, the ideas of Winston Churchill—on America's thirty-fifth president. For the first time we trace the friendships and forces that led to the White House and shaped Kennedy's actions there. In this intimate portrait of a leader torn between politics and principle, we finally come to know the man Kennedy wanted to be and to understand his long, private struggle to become that man.
