An indispensable insider reveals the high-stakes decisions and private counsel behind John F. Kennedy’s historic presidency.
In this extraordinary memoir, John F. Kennedy’s closest advisor recounts in full for the first time his experience counseling Kennedy through the most dramatic moments in American history. Candid and intimate, Sorensen traces an extraordinary journey from his progressive upbringing in Lincoln, Nebraska, to the center of power in Washington.
The narrative reconstructs eleven pivotal years at Kennedy’s side, charting the initial Senate staff work and the collaborative composition of Profiles in Courage.
Drawing upon firsthand White House councils, the author details the tense ExComm deliberations of October 1962 and the private conferences that forged landmark administration policies.
Illuminating, revelatory, and gripping, Counselor is the brilliant, long-awaited memoir from the remarkable man who shaped the presidency and the legacy of one of the greatest leaders America has ever known.
- Cold War Diplomacy: Sorensen reveals the secret back-channel letters to Soviet Chairman Nikita Khrushchev, the bitter fallout from the 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion, and Kennedy’s resolute refusal to deploy American combat divisions to Vietnam.
- Cuban Missile Crisis: An insider account of the fateful Saturday in October 1962 when Sorensen and Robert F. Kennedy drafted the response accepting Nikita Khrushchev’s initial offer, averting an imminent airstrike and nuclear confrontation.
- American Politics: The inside story of the grueling four-year campaign across all fifty states, confronting anti-Catholic bias before the Houston ministers and outmaneuvering Richard Nixon in the nation’s first televised debates.
- Presidential History: Behind-the-podium insights into crafting Kennedy’s iconic rhetoric, including the immortal 1961 inaugural address, the American University peace initiative, and the famous rally at the Berlin Wall.
