The book of The Killing of Robert F. Kennedy is moving to those like myself who love Presidential information and facts. I had know much about the assassination of John F. Kennedy (it had always interested me), but knew little about his brother Robert. It turned out that Robert F. Kennedy and his brother John (the slain President of the United States) were not just brothers, they were also close friends. Robert Kennedy managed his brother's successful campaign for the Presidency of the United States, and also was a close part of JFK's presidency, being in his cabinet. When his brother was struck down by an assassin's bullet in a visit to Texas Robert was devastated, after reading I almost think that he might have been slightly depressed. John and Robert thought very similar on many issues, and was almost a younger version of his brother. After much though, he decides to run for President. After reading this book I concluded that I would have hands down voted for RFK during his bid for the Oval Office. My favorite part of the book describes the tension between RFK and his opponent as they came to the California Democratic Primary. It was in Los Angeles that Robert F. Kennedy was shot after winning the primary. This book shows great detail and is easily understood, I would recommend it to anyone who love Presidential history, like myself. (335 Pages)… (mais)
