Description

At the heart of this provocative book lies the fundamental question: Does it matter who is president on issues of war and peace? Tackling head-on the most controversial and debated "what if" in U.S. foreign policy, this unique work explores what President John F. Kennedy would have done in Vietnam if he had not been assassinated in 1963. Drawing on a wealth of recently declassified documents, oral testimony of White House officials, and the analysis of top historians, this book presents compelling evidence that JFK was ready to end U.S. involvement well before the conflict escalated. Readers will feel they are in the president's war room as the debates raged that forever changed the course of American history.
