Longlisted for the National Book Award for Nonfiction • A New Yorker Best Book of the Year

"Revelatory . . . the definitive single volume . . . fresh and indelible." —Oprah Daily

"A rounded portrait of a gifted, complex, and sometimes tortured man." —The Boston Globe

An enthralling and groundbreaking new biography of one of modern America’s most fascinating and consequential political figures, drawing on important new sources, by an award-winning biographer who covered Kennedy closely for many years


John A. Farrell’s magnificent biography of Edward M. Kennedy is the first single-volume life of the great figure since his death. Farrell’s long acquaintance with the Kennedy uni­verse and the acclaim accorded his previous books—including his New York Times best­selling biography of Richard Nixon, a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize—helped garner him access to a remarkable range of new sources, including segments of Kennedy’s personal diary and his private confessions to members of his family in the days that followed the accident on Chappaquiddick. Farrell is, without question, one of America’s greatest politi­cal biographers and a storyteller of deep wisdom and empathy. His book does full justice to this famously epic and turbulent life of almost unimaginable tragedy and triumph.

As the fourth son of the close-knit but fiercely competitive Kennedy clan, Ted was the runt of the litter. Expelled from Harvard University for cheating, he was a fun-loving playboy who nevertheless served his brothers loyally and effectively. It was easy to take Ted lightly, and many did. But when he was elected to the United States Senate at the age of thirty to fill his brother Jack’s seat, something unexpected happened: He found his home and his calling there. Over time, Ted Kennedy would build arguably the most significant senatorial career in American history.

His life was buffeted by heartbreak: the violent deaths of his three older brothers, his own terrible plane crash, his children’s bouts with cancer, and the hideous self-inflicted wounds of Chappaquiddick and stretches of drinking and womanizing that caused ir­reparable damage to an already fragile first marriage. Those wounds scarred Ted deeply but also tempered his character, and, eventually, he embarked on a run as legislator, party elder, and paterfamilias of the Kennedy family that would change America for the better. John A. Farrell brings us the man as he was, in strength and weakness, his profound but complicated inheritance and his vital legacy, as only a great biographer can do. Without the story this book tells, no understanding of modern America can be complete.

JUNK!
Color: Grey
This is the worst product in every way. I ordered a similar one previously and thought I was getting the same product which was great, no this is a piece of junk. I would have gladly sent it back but I needed it. I feel sorry for anyone who tries to put this together without any mechanical ability. I have plenty and it was still a nightmare. We will surely not be purchasing anything from this company in the future. The previous one I bought was a (Kecreque Room Divider). Is is a quality product!

Nice looking and lightweight
I bought this to put in front of my basement doorway where I am missing a door. I don't like my cats in the basement and this works very well. However, because of the panels being up on 2 inch or so tiny stilts, my cats can still get through. So I have it upside down and will be putting gliders on the "bottom" of each panel. Note that it did come with gliders on the little stilts.

Know what you're doing before you order
Color: Grey
There's a very high quality item easy to assemble last a long time it was pretty nice. For the first one. My roommate talked me into buying the second one and then he backed out of the deal he didn't have the money. So I returned it at the Amazon store and like a boomerang it came back. I end up having to buy it anyway you're still sitting in the box
