Heartland’s Tim Benson is joined by Dr. Fredrik Logevall of Harvard University to discuss his new book, “JFK: Coming of Age in the American Century, 1917-1956.” They begin by talking how Jack’s life parallels the rise of the United States as a world power. They also chat about Jack’s early years, his relationship with his parents and siblings, and the ongoing series of illnesses, maladies, and injuries that befall him. Jack’s college years, Joe Senior’s ambassadorship, PT-109, Jack’s congressional career, Profiles in Courage, Nixon, McCarthy, Jackie, and his run for the Veep slot under Stevenson in 1956 also come up for discussion.
