"Hellman notes that despite Kennedy's charisma and charm, America has long been obsessed with the Kennedy family far beyond any seemingly reasonable interest or curiosity. Hellman's text explores Kennedy's deliberate creation of his self-image, and how his public persona interacted with the mass media and the political machine to create the pervasive Kennedy myth. The book is concise and illuminating, and never falls into the sensationalist or trite. Overall, Hellman is an engaging and interesting author who does a lot to bring the already interesting subject matter to life."More papers on "The Kennedy Obsession":
