SENATE GOV (UNITED STATES) FIND SENATOR/ PROFILES IN COURAGE
John F. Kennedy is possibly the most popular president, other than Abraham Lincoln. Yet this compartmentalized and complicated man had an unconventional private life due to his womanizing. His widow, Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy, who went on to marry Aristotle Onassis, is esteemed as a most popular first lady.
Published in 1956, written while the Senator was recovering from back surgery, Profiles in Courage was Kennedy's second book. His first, Why England Slept, was his Harvard graduation thesis. This link has a summation of the book, chapter by chapter.
