Camelot's Court: Inside the Kennedy White House
“Dallek’s portraits of advisers including Arthur Schlesinger Jr. and Walt Rostow are lapidary, and it is difficult to quarrel with his judgments.” (The New York Times Book Review)“Dallek is an assiduous digger into archives. . . . The story of how a glamorous but green young president struggled with conflicting and often bad advice while trying to avoid nuclear Armageddon remains a gripping and cautionary tale of the loneliness of command.” (Evan Thomas,The Washington Post)“ThinkThe Best and the BrightestmeetsTeam of Rivals. . . . Dallek is one of the deans of presidential scholarship.” (Beverly Gage,The Nation)
