Synopsis

The presidential scholar shares an intimate visual biography of JFK through personal photos, diary entries, and other rare memorabilia.  
 
Until his inspiring life was tragically cut short, John F. Kennedy commanded the world’s attention. Today, his legacy is still very much alive. In this fascinating volume, Chuck Wills presents an inspiring and uniquely personal chronicle of the president’s life.  
 
Jack Kennedy includes everything from doodles and diary entries to drafts of major addresses. Hundreds of photographs and a compelling narrative uncover the remarkable tale of an intensely private man, from his rivalry with his older brother and his persistent courtship of Jackie to the inner workings of a historical presidency.

    An explosive, groundbreaking album that crowned a new king of rock in just 33 minutes Before Elvis Costello was one of Rolling Stone’s greatest artists of all time, before he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, he was Declan P. McManus, an office drone with a dull suburban life and a side gig in a pub rock band. In 1976, under the guidance of legendary label Stiff Records, he transformed himself into the snarling, spectacled artist who defied the musical status quo to blaze the trail for a new kind of rock star with his debut album, My Aim Is True. In Elvis Is King, Richard Crouse examines how the man, the myth, and the music of this arrestingly original album smashed the trends of the era to bridge the gap between punk and rock ’n’ roll.
