Review this book!
This biography of John F. Kennedy draws on the author's access to documents and other sources that reveal some hitherto unknown information, including the true state of Kennedy's health. Author Dallek also reveals that Kennedy had an affair with a White House intern. But mostly this is a serious study of the life and 1,000-day presidency, with an emphasis on the foreign-policy challenges posed by Khrushchev, Castro, and Vietnam. A New York Times Notable Book for 2003.
