This book was a great idea that, in my opinion, left a lot of interest on the editor's floor. It contained a fair amount of journalistic claptrap which detracted from the titled purpose. Sometimes journalists get impressed with their own descriptive ability and this guy felt that we needed to know about sun on the Washington Monument, that "scores of thousands of girls" were homeward bound, that lights "jiggle in front of a burlesque house", and that "in the Negro slums behind the Capitol a woman sings 'Summertime' in a tired, cracked tone." Apart from that sort of unnecessary elaboration to the story, I liked that the author thought Mr. Kennedy was a great family man and a tireless worker for his country. He made what could have been a mundane subject sort of interesting. A little more detail in timelines for meetings and discussions along with durations of those events, length of interval between them and what happens during those intervals, could have made the President's efforts on our behalf more impressive.
