Summary

Robert Kennedy has been viewed as hero and villain. Thomas's achievement is to portray RFK as a human being--an extraordinarily complex man who was at once kind and cruel, devious and honest, fearful and brave.

Robert Kennedy Summary

Robert Kennedy by THOMAS EVAN

He was "Good Bobby," who, as his brother Ted eulogized him, "saw wrong and tried to right it . . . saw suffering and tried to heal it." And "Bad Bobby," the ruthless and manipulative bully of countless conspiracy theories. Thomas's unvarnished but sympathetic and fair-minded portrayal is packed with new details about Kennedy's early life and his behind-the-scenes machinations, including new revelations about the 1960 and 1968 presidential campaigns, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and his long struggles with J. Edgar Hoover and Lyndon Johnson.
