[449]-456) and index. aJournalist Talbot sheds a dramatic new light on the tumultuous inner life of the Kennedy presidency and its stunning aftermath. The book begins on the shattering afternoon of November 22, 1963, as a grief-stricken Robert Kennedy urgently demands answers about the assassination of his brother, then shifts back in time, revealing the shadowy conflicts that tore apart the Kennedy administration, pitting the young president and his even younger brother against their own national security apparatus. The Kennedy brothers and their small circle of trusted advisors repeatedly thwarted Washington's warriors, the hard-line generals and spymasters hell-bent on a showdown with the Communists--the Kennedys pushing instead for a peaceful resolution to the Cold War. The tensions within the Kennedy administration were heading for an explosive climax, when a burst of gunfire in Dallas terminated John F. Kennedy's presidency.--From publisher description. 0aUnited StatesxPolitics and governmenty1961-1963. 0aUnited StatesxPolitics and governmenty1963-1969.10aKennedy, John F.q(John Fitzgerald),d1917-1963.10aKennedy, Robert F.,d1925-1968.10aKennedy, John F.q(John Fitzgerald),d1917-1963xAssassination. 0aNational securityzUnited StatesxHistoryy20th century. 0aConspiracieszUnited StatesxHistoryy20th century. 0aPresidentszUnited StatesvBiography. 0aAttorneys generalzUnited StatesvBiography. 0aPresidential candidateszUnited StatesvBiography.413Table of contents onlyuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0710/2007005119.html423Publisher descriptionuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0710/2007005119-d.html
