Stephen F. Knott, "Coming to Terms with John F. Kennedy"
English | ISBN: 0700633650 | 2022 | 280 pages | EPUB | 1125 KB
Stephen F. Knott has spent his life grappling with the legacy of President John F. Kennedy: JFK was the first president Knott remembers, he worked for Ted Kennedy's Senate campaign in 1976, and later he worked at the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston. Moreover, Knott's scholarly work on the American presidency has wrestled with Kennedy's time in office and whether his presidency was ultimately a positive or negative one for the country. After initially being a strong Kennedy fan, Knott's views began to sour during his time at the library, eventually leading him to become a "Reagan Democrat." The Trump presidency led Knott to revisit JFK, leading him once more to reconsider his views.
