Description
JFK: Coming of Age in the American Century, 1917-1956 by Fredrik Logevall
JFK: Coming of Age in the American Century, 1917-1956 by Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Fredrik Logevall is the first of a two-volume biography of John F. Kennedy, also known as “Jack.” In it, Logevall takes a picture of a famous yet elusive U.S. president and breaks it down into several candid stories that flesh out Jack first as a person and then as a leader.
It provides an extensive background of the Kennedys with their humble beginnings as working-class Irish immigrants to their subsequent rise to power in Boston politics. More importantly, JFK introduces Jack’s younger years in a refreshing light: a neglected second son, a respected writer, an impressive Harvard student, and a selfless war hero. The years covered in this volume span Jack’s birth in 1917 to his vice-presidential nomination loss in 1956 that launched his political career to a national level.
The chronicling of these events and the significant, often-overlooked ones in-between, gives readers a more profound understanding of the Jack they’ll read about in volume 2, which accounts his presidency and assassination.
JFK: Coming of Age in the American Century, 1917-1956 received a 4.6-star rating on Goodreads and a 4.8-star rating on Amazon. David M. Kennedy of The New York Times Book Reviews claims that no other author has written a biography “better or more thoroughly.” The Economist called it “masterful,” and The Guardian claimed it’s “superb.”
