Power & Ambition The Kennedy Family And The Tragedy of an American Dynasty

Bag om Power & Ambition The Kennedy Family And The Tragedy of an American Dynasty

Kennedy's unyielding ambition to shield his kin from the turbulent tides of discrimination, this work explores how his aspirations birthed a legacy that reshaped American history.
