“This book was written the summer before Bobby Kennedy was assignated. It's a first draft copy based on his personal journal and recollections. Had he had the time to fine tune the copy a little more, I probably would have given this book five stars. Reading this book will definitely drive home the point how important it is that the presidential cabinet is made up not just of brilliant minds but of differing opinions as well. As Kennedy puts it in his book, had any one of half a dozen people in that room had it their way, the outcome of the Cuban Missle Crisis would have been much different. ”
