    <![CDATA[The definitive account of Robert Kennedy's exhilarating and tragic 1968 campaign for president-a revelatory history that is especially resonant nowAfter John F. Kennedy's assassination, Robert Kennedy-formerly Jack's no-holds-barred political warrior-almost lost hope. He was haunted by his brother's murder, and by the nation's seeming inabilities to solve its problems of race, poverty, and the war in Vietnam. Bobby sensed the country's pain, and when he announced that he was running for president, the country united behind his hopes. Over the action-packed eighty-two days of his campaign, Americans were inspired by Kennedy's promise to lead them toward a better time. And after an assassin's bullet stopped this last great stirring public figure of the 1960s, crowds lined up along the country's railroad tracks to say goodbye to Bobby. With new research, interviews, and an intimate sense of Kennedy, Thurston Clarke provides an absorbing historical narrative that goes right to the heart of America's deepest despairs-and most fiercely held dreams-and tells us more than we had understood before about this complicated man and the heightened personal, racial, political, and national dramas of his times.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I love Bobby Kennedy, though even I thought that at times, the author goes a little overboard with just how &quot;perfect&quot; RFK was.  I will warn of that right now: the author at times loses all objectivity.  That said, this really is a well researched and well written account of one politician ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25749165">more...</a>]]></body>
