THE LAST BROTHER FOCUSES ON THE EXTRAORDINARY SIXTIES, A DECADE THAT BEGAN IN GLORY WITH JACK KENNEDYS ASCENSION TO THE PRESIDENCY, AND ENDED AFTER THE MURDERS OF JACK AND BOBY, THE TRAGEDY OF CAPPAQUIDDICK, AND THEIR FATHERS DEATH, WITH TEDDY STANDING ALONE IN THE TWILIGHT OF CAMELOT. HERE IS THE LAST KENNEDY BROTHER AS YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE. THE OUTSIDER OF AMERCAS MOST AMBITIOUS POITICAL CLAN, WHO FINALLY WON HIS RIGHTFUL PLACE IN AMERICAN POLITICS, AT AN INCALCULABLE PRICE. THE LAST BROTHER IS A BOOK YOU WILL READ FROM COVER TO COVER, A POWERFULLY ENGROSSING ACCOUNT OF A MAN AT WAR WITH HIMSELF, DOOMED TO LIVE IN THE GIANT SHADOW OF HIS BROTHERS, AND TRAPPED IN THE FABULOUS KENNEDY MYTH, LONGING BUT UNABLE TO ESCAPE.
