THE PULITZER PRIZEWINNING CLASSIC OF POLITICAL INTEGRITYWith a foreword by Robert F. Kennedy and introduction by Caroline KennedyJohn F. Kennedys enduring classic resounds with timeless lessons on the most cherished of virtuescourage and patriotismand remains a moving, powerful, and relevant testament to the indomitable American spiritDuring 195455, Kennedy, then a junior senator from the state of Massachusetts, profiled eight American patriots, mainly United States Senators, who at crucial moments in our nations history, revealed a special sort of greatness: men who disregarded dreadful consequences to their public and private lives to do that one thing which seemed right in itself. They were men of various political and regional allegiancestheir one overriding loyalty was to the United States.Courage such as these men shared, Kennedy makes clear, is central to all moralitya man does what he must in spite of personal consequencesand these exciting stories suggest that, without in the least disparaging the courage with which men die, we should not overlook the true greatness adorning those acts of courage with which men must live.As Robert F. Kennedy writes in the foreword, Profiles in Courage is not just stories of the past but a book of hope and confidence for the future. What happens to the country, to the world, depends on what we do with what others have left us.'This Harper Perennial Deluxe Edition, featuring French flaps and deckleedge paper, includes a special 'P.S.' edition with vintage photographs, an extensive author biography, Kennedy's correspondence about the writing project, contemporary reviews of the book, a letter from Ernest Hemingway, and two rousing speeches from recipients of the Profile in Courage Award.
