Summary: | Concentrating on Kennedy's Senate years and his 1968 presidential bid, Dooley examines his shift from conservative Democrat to anti-Vietnam war radical. Using interviews with key members of Kennedy's staff and his political opponents, Dooley examines Kennedy's involvement in civil rights, the New Left and foreign policy, and analyses the 1968 presidential campaign with its tragic end in Kennedy's assassination. |
