Robert Dallek interviewed about his new book on the Kennedy White House
From November 13, 2013: Fifty years after President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, distinguished presidential historian and bestselling author Robert Dallek provides a striking portrait of the iconic president and his inner circle of advisers—their rivalries, personality clashes, and political battles.

National Constitution Center president Jeffrey Rosen spoke with Dallek in a riveting one-hour discussion about a leader whose resistance to pressure and adherence to principle offers a fascinating perspective on presidential power.
