I didn't expect to find much in this book which was new but it was a surprisingly refreshing read, putting into context much that I already knew but neatly demonstrating what was going on behind the scenes. November 2013 sees the 50th anniversary of JFK's death and there are bound to be plenty of books available, but this one does fill a hitherto unacknowledged gap. I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
For more about JFK and his brother Bobby we can recommend [[Brothers: The Hidden History of the Kennedy Years by David Talbot]]. You might also enjoy [[One Minute to Midnight: Kennedy, Krushchev and Castro on the Brink of Nuclear War by Michael Dobbs]]. Young children might appreciate [[Patrick and the President by Ryan Tubridy and P J Lynch]].
