Puff piece on the late Senator, written by 2 of his aides.
Only covers about 2 years, 1994-1996, when the GOP took over the house and senate.
Kennedy was up to the challenge and fended off the assault.
Actually a book more about the running of the Senate than Kennedy.
He managed to get major legislation passed despite the obstacles thrown in his path.
Grade - C
next up - A Bell For Adamo by John Hersey
