Product Description
Despite Kennedy’s presidency lasting only 1000 days, his life and violent death forever marked American history. John F. Kennedy details one of the US's most intriguing figures.
John Kennedy and his wife Jackie were more like glamorous movie stars than politicians, and were featured in many popular magazines. During his presidency, Kennedy faced mounting international tensions with the Bay of Pigs, Vietnam, the Berlin Wall, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and a world of change at home with the civil rights movement and the space program. His assassination on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas, sent shockwaves around the globe, and turned the all-too-human Kennedy into a larger-than-life super-hero.
The year 2017 marked the centenary of the birth of John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States (1961-1963) and the youngest man ever elected to the office. Sworn in as president on January 20, 1961, the famous patriotic words of his inaugural address come ringing down through the years, "Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country."
Many of Kennedy’s speeches are considered iconic; and despite his 3 short years in office, Americans regularly vote him as one of the best presidents. Charlotte Montague has written an intriguing biography of one of the most famous men of modern times.
