"That which was he like?" Jack port Kennedy said the reason why people read biographies is to answer that basic question. With all the verve of your novelist, Chris Matthews provides us that. We see this most beloved president in the company of friends. We see and feel him close-up, having a great time and offering off that restlessness of his. We watch him find their way his life from privileged, rebellious junior to gutsy North american president. We see his bravery in war and selfless recovery of his PT fishing boat team. We watch JFK as a young politician learning to play hardball watching him grow in to the head who averts a nuclear war. That which was he like, this person whose own better half called him "that elusive, memorable man"? The Jack port Kennedy you discover here wanted never to be alone, never to be tired. He enjoyed courage, hated war, lived each day as if it were his last. Chris Matthews' outstanding biography is dependant on personal interviews with those closest to JFK, oral histories by top political aide Kenneth O'Donnell as well as others, documents from his years as students at Choate, and records from Jacqueline Kennedy's first interview after Dallas. You'll learn the origins of his inaugural call to "Ask you skill for your country." You'll discover his role in the genesis of the Calmness Corps, his stand on civil rights, his push to put a guy on the moon, his ban on nuclear-arms evaluation. You'll get, as part of your before, to the main of the person, including the unsettling areas of his personal life. As Matthews creates, "I came across a struggling with prince never free from pain, never definately not trouble, never receiving the earth he found, never attempting to be his father's boy. He was a lot better hero than he ever before wished us to know."
