Kennedy Through the Lens

As the well-reviewed Through the Lens series
continues, Sandler aims the spotlight on John F. Kennedy, one of our
most photogenic presidents, providing insight into how JFK used the new
medium of television and the advances in color photography to further
his ambitious agenda. Sandler's extensive research at the Kennedy
Library sheds light on key events in Kennedy's lifetime that combine to
provide an intimate portrait of the man as a brother, a father, an
activist, and a president. Out in time for the 50th anniversary of
Kennedy's inauguration, this will be an essential addition to any
Kennedy collection.
