New York: Harper & Row, October 1965. First Edition, later printing. Red cloth over boards with box box and gilt lettering and decoration to spine. Top edge dyed green.

Not from a library. No remainder mark. x + 783 pages.
In January 1953, freshman Senator John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts hired a 24-year-old Unitarian from Nebraska as his Number Two legislative assistant - on a trial basis. Despite the differences in their backgrounds, Theodore Sorensen in the eleven years that followed became known as Kennedy's "intellectual blood bank," "top policy aide" and "alter ego." Three months to the day after Dallas, Sorensen left the White House to write the account of those eleven years that only he could write. He admits at the outset the bias of so personal a memoir. Yet he recounts failures as well as successes with surprising candor and objectivity, producing a perceptive biography of an extraordinary man.
