Robert F. Kennedy

"In this portrait, Konstantin Sidorenko displays a compelling understanding of this most complex man, whose mother's spiritual training kept him from embracing only worldly ambition. Worldly purpose fused with religious values in Bobby's case, giving us a politician who would rise above the political give and take, the balancing act among competing interest groups, to take a moral stance when America needed more than the advice Cold War tacticians could supply.". "Robert Kennedy grew up politically in an era of change nearly unmatched in American history and he intended to lead by action and example. Kennedy's legacy set the stage whereby future politicians could lead with no less conviction and hope."--BOOK JACKET.
