JFK's last hundred days - Thurston Clarke

'Poignant, fascinating, entertaining and informative ... reminds us
exactly how much did happen in that time span and of how many
tantalising hints he left behind'
Financial Times

'Brilliantly captures Kennedy's entire life through the prism of his
final months ... the hero, like the devil, is in the detail' Mark Mason,
Spectator, Books of the Year

'Wonderfully vivid' Dominic Sandbrook, Sunday Times

'A vivid portrait of Kennedy as an immensely complex human being: by
turns detached and charismatic, a hard-nosed politician and a closet
romantic, cautious in his decision making but reckless in his
womanizing' Michicko Kakutani, New York Times

'A superb
piece of writing - richly detailed and, considering that the end is all
too well known, surprisingly enthralling'
Frank Gannon, Wall Street Journal

'The great merit of Clarke's account is that it encompasses both sides
of Kennedy: the statesman and the chancer; the moralist and the
opportunist'
David Runciman, New Statesman

'A superb book ... has the ominousness of a Shakespearean tragedy' Roger Lewis, Daily Mail
