Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. Cohen, Barbara N. (book design) (illustratore). 1st Edition. Fine condition black boards, black cloth spine, and gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped photographic dust jacket. Includes Acknowledgments; The Interviewers; Editorial Note; Foreword by Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.; Appendix; Glossary of Names; The Kennedy Presidency: A Chronology; Index and About the Editors. Illustrated with a 16 page section of black-and-white photographic plates. "Here are the words of Robert Kennedy, in a voice that rings out clearly through the years with a sharp, concise evaluation of the Kennedy era. In a personal reminiscence that takes us behind the headlines, Robert Kennedy sheds light on the events and decisions of the Kennedy administration through the eyes of the people who worked in it and observed it directly. But most of all, Robert Kennedy speaks of his brother, John, and from these intimate memories a new portrait of JFK, the man and his era, emerges. In these never-before-published transcripts of lively, extensive interviews originally recorded in the mid-1960s for the John F. Kennedy Library where they were available for historians and scholars, Robert Kennedy is both candid and incisive as he explains his own role in American policy from the Bay of Pigs to the civil rights campaign to the early years of American involvment in Vietnam. His anecdotes and insights cover a wide range of topics including: The pre-presidential years: what made JFK run; The last-minute choice of Lyndon Johnson to be Vice President; How JFK chose Rusk, Stevenson, McNamara, Ribicoff and Udall, his youthful administration for the "New Frontier"; The inside politics of the early civil rights movement and its players including Martin Luther King, Jr.; The involvement of Hoover and the FBI in Attorney General Robert Kennedy's efforts to implement desegregation in the South; The profound impact of the Bay of Pigs on all of JFK's future decision making; Robert and John Kennedy's personal and candid opinions of such world leaders as Nikita Khrushchev, Jawaharlal Nehru and Charles de Gaulle; The Attorney General's battle against organized crime; The political emergence of brother Ted; Robert Kennedy's thoughts on Lyndon Johnson; Robert Kennedy's personal memories of the difficult days that followed his brother's assassination. As we debate the nature of leadership for American in the eighties and beyond, this portrait of the Kennedy style of leadership provides keen insight into the pressures and motivations of a popular presidency in difficult times. Only now, twenty-five years after the death of John F. Kennedy, and twenty years since that of his brother, can the full story finally be told. Robert Kennedy: In His Own Words is a crucial document for understanding a turbulent and dramatic period of American history." -- from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
