Synopsis:
In this groundbreaking book, award-winning investigative journalist Seymour M. Hersh shows us a John F. Kennedy we have never seen before, a man insulated from the normal consequences of behavior long before he entered the White House. His father, Joe, set the pattern with an arrogance and cunning that have never been fully appreciated: Kennedys could do exactly what they wanted, and could evade any charge brought against them. Kennedys wrote their own moral code. And Kennedys trusted only Kennedys. Jack appointed his brother Bobby keeper of the secrets - the family debt to organized crime, the real state of Jack's health, the sources of his election victories, the plots to murder foreign leaders, and the president's intentions in Vietnam. The brothers prided themselves on another trait inherited from their father - a voracious appetite for women - and indulged it with a daily abandon deeply disturbing to the Secret Service agents who witnessed it. These men speak for the first time about their amazement at what they saw and the powerlessness they felt to protect the leader of their country.
Review:
"Nobody...has trashed the image of Kennedy as thoroughly or as savagely as investigative reporter Seymour M. Hersh does in his already much discussed new book."
New York Times, 11/13/1997
Review:"A stunning new book."
Wall Street Journal

Book Description: Little Brown and Company, New York, 1997. Hard Back. Book Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition First Printing Stated. 6" x 9 1/2". 498 pages indexed. lack boards with brown quarterspine with silver lettering. Center section of black and white photographs. Jack Kennedy had it all. And he used it all--- his father's fortune, and his own beauty, wit, and power ---- with a heedless, reckless daring. There was no tomorrow, and there was no secret that money and charm could not hide. In this groundbreaking book, award-winning investigative journalist Seymour M. Hersh shows us a John F. Kennedy we have never seen before, a man insulated from the normal consequences of behavior long before he entered the White House. His father, Joe, set the pattern with an arrogance and cunning that have never been fully appreciated: Kennedys could do exactly what they wanted, and could evade any charge brought against them. Kennedys wrote their own moral code. And Kennedys trusted only Kennedys. Jack appointed his brother Bobby keeper of the secrets --- the family debt to organized crime, the real state of Jack's health, the sources of his election victories, the plots to murder foreign leaders, and the president's intentions in Vietnam. As Jack's closest confidant and chief enforcer, Bobby attacked any potential family enemy with a savagery he was supposed to reserve for the criminals he was sworn to prosecute--the very criminals their father had enlisted. The brothers prided themselves on another trait inherited from their father --- a voracious appetite for women --- and indulged it with a daily abandon deeply disturbing to the Secret Service agents who witnessed it. These men speak for the first time about their amazement at what they saw and the powerlessness they felt to protect the leader of their country. By the end of his life, Jack Kennedy's private recklessness was beginning to edge into his public life, putting him --- and his nation --- at risk. ---- From the dust jacket flap.
