  1. 1. The Unfinished Odyssey Of Robert Kennedy

    A nuanced portrait of Robert F. Kennedy that traces his evolution from privileged political insider to an increasingly empathetic, sometimes conflicted champion of the marginalized; it explores his intellectual and moral growth, personal anxieties, relationships, and the tensions between ambition and conscience amid the social and political upheavals of the 1960s, following his role in government, his 1968 presidential campaign, and his assassination while reflecting on the promise and unfinished potential of his reforming vision.
