More About This Book

Overview

Robert F. Kennedy died from an assassin's bullet on June 6, 1968. Commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of that tragedy, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Edwin O. Guthman, a confidant of RFK's, and C. Richard Allen have assembled a moving and eloquent volume of his speeches. Arranged chronologically and woven together with a narrative that places the speeches in global and national as well as personal context - and illustrated with sixteen pages of photographs, some never before published - this first collection of its kind serves also as a stirring history of two turbulent American decades. Public interest in the Kennedys has only grown stronger as the years have passed. And RFK's voice is as relevant today as it was when he first spoke out on individual responsibility, personal courage, compassion for those less fortunate, and all of the critical issues of his time - and ours.

Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Representative sampling of the more than 300 speeches Robert F. Kennedy delivered during a 13-year public career constitute this volume. Entries were selected by Guthman, a Pultizer Prize-winning journalist and one-time press secretary to Kennedy, and Allen, a speechwriter who as a teenager campaigned for Kennedy in his 1968 quest for the White House. The editors seek to inspire, in particular, those too young to remember RFK. ``In an age where celebrity is measured by the quarter hour and heroism seldom survives the evening news,'' they write, ``we hope young people will continue to be intrigued and inspired by a man who served only three and a half years in elective office, never became President, yet continues to be one of our most admired leaders 25 years after his murder.'' This handy compendium is recommended for academic and large public libraries.-- Thomas H. Appleton Jr., Kentucky Historical Soc., Frankfort
