Greenwood Publishing Group : John F. Kennedy and Israel

Reviews:

-John F. Kennedy and Israel has much to say on how history ought to judge Kennedy. Druks' narrative shows Kennedy able to focus in perspective and insightful ways on the Middle East even as the Cuban missile crisis and the civil rights movement necessarily took much of his time. The lasting impact on the Middle East of what brief time JFK had is inescapable to anyone reading Herbert M. Druks's fascinating book. —Hadassah Magazine

-[D]ruks' book is well written, and the reader easily beomes revited with the dramatic relationships of the Kennedy family world politics. It is hard to put the book down. For a study of international affairs, this is not an easy task, and the author is to be commended for presenting an important book in a very readable and fascinating style. —www.jewishgrowth.org

-One might credit Druks for writing with his politics clearly displayed. It is starkly clear that the author strongly likes Israel, strongly dislikes the Arab states, and has serious grievances with the State Department and the Dwight D. Eisenhower administration (on the grounds that they were harsh on Israel). While some readers might find the author's passion a bit grating, others will appreciate his commitment to say what he thinks. —The Journal of American History
