Dear Global Forum Members and Readers:

AN UNFINISHED LIFE: JOHN F. KENNEDY, 1917 - 1963, 2003 by Robert Dallek.

"Cutting through the haze of distortions and myths which have encased John F. Kennedy's legacy, AN UNFINISHED LIFE sets the historical
record straight. Granted special access to a treasure trove of new documents, Robert Dallek tells the story of Kennedy's dazzling life
with scholarly detachment, shred analysis, and pitch-perfect prose. AN UNFINISHED LIFE is hands down the best biography of JFK - the
American president and icon who refuses to fade away. A truly remarkable achievement."
Douglas Brinkley, director of the Eisenhower Center for American Studies at the University of New Orleans; author of THE UNFAITHFUL
PRESIDENCY: JIMMY' CARTER'S JURNEY BEYOND THE WHITE HOUSE.

"A stellar work by one of our finest historians, as candid and penetrating as it is balanced and judicious."
James MacGregor Burns, Jetson School of Leadership Studies; author of ROOSEVELT: THE LION AND THE FOX.

"AN UNFINISHED LIFE is one of the most engrossing biographies I have ever read. Robert Dallek's superb informed account of John F.
Kennedy's triumphant public life makes a magnificent counterpoint to his fascinating revelations about Kennedy's history of illness
and pain. AN UNFINISHED LIFE is nothing less than a masterpiece."

Harvard University, author of LINCOLN

MY Commentary:

I have always read/skimmed/studied the Extreme Right to the Extreme Left because I want to know what is circulation out there,
never wanting to live like an Intellectual Ostrich with my Head Buried In The Sands of Ignorance.

Robert Dallek in his Work of Art, AN UNFINISHED LIFE: JOHN F. KENNEDY - 1917 - 1963 has achieved historical, intellectual, and
truthful writing that is judicious as others have stated.
