Kennedy's assassination in June 1968, Jack Newfield's Robert Kennedy: A Memoir is one of the most immediate, intimate, and enduring portraits of RFK ever written. Newfield — a journalist and charter member of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), and one of the founders of the Dump Johnson movement — covered Kennedy's 1968 presidential campaign from the inside, and his account is suffused with the grief and moral urgency of a man who believed Kennedy represented the last best chance to transform American politics. More journalism than biography, more elegy than hagiography, this first edition Dutton hardcover is a genuine piece of 1960s political Americana.
