About this listen

He looked like a movie star. He sounded like the future. And for a moment, he made America believe in something again. But behind the charm, the suits, and the speeches, John F. Kennedy was walking a tightrope between legacy and rebellion. Between image and truth. Between power and the people who actually run things. JFK: The Man Who Went Off Script isn’t just another presidential biography. It’s a sharp, unflinching look at how one man stepped out of the role he was born to play and what happened when he did. From the dynastic grip of Joe Kennedy Sr. to the CIA betrayals, mob entanglements, civil rights pressure, and nuclear brinkmanship, this book cuts through the myth and finds the man who tried to rewrite the rules and paid for it.
