Charismatic leader and American icon, John F Kennedy became, during his tragically short life, one of the most idolised - and misunderstood - figures of the twentieth century.
This is the first authoritative single-volume biography of Kennedy to be written in nearly four decades. Drawing upon first-hand sources and never-before-opened archives, prize-winning historian Robert Dallek reveals more than we ever knew about JFK, for ever changing the way we think about his life, his presidency and his legacy.
Dallek never shies away from Kennedy's weaknesses, but also brilliantly explores his strengths. The result is a full portrait of a bold, brave and truly human John F. Kennedy.
