ROBERT KENNEDY by Evan Thomas (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

“An assured, gripping new biography…Thomas’s book is exemplary.” (Chicago Tribune)

Was Robert Kennedy the “Good Bobby” who saw wrong and tried to right it, or the “Bad Bobby” of countless conspiracy theories? Packed with new details about RFK's early life and his behind-the-scenes machinations, this work brings to life one of the century’s most fascinating men.

Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling on a tiny screen. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves.

NOTICE: This app includes the exact same 5-star recording offered elsewhere at much higher prices. It was professionally recorded by Blackstone Audio's narrator Ray Porter, winner of multiple Audie® and Earphones® awards. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here.

"Ray Porter’s authoritative voice is well suited to Thomas’s meticulously researched biography….In sync with Thomas’s text, Porter’s narration is simultaneously matter-of-fact and reverent. For Kennedy fans and political history buffs, this biography delivers." (AudioFile)

___________________

Robert F. Kennedy has been viewed traditionally as either the “Good Bobby,” who saw wrong and tried to right it, or the “Bad Bobby” of countless conspiracy theories. Evan Thomas’s achievement is to realize RFK as a human being, to bring to life an extraordinarily complex man who was at once kind and cruel, devious and honest, fearful and brave. The portrait that emerges is unvarnished but sympathetic, packed with new details about Kennedy's early life and his behind-the-scenes machinations. In a clear and fast-paced narrative, Thomas cuts through the mythology to reveal a character who, though he died young just as he was reaching for ultimate power, remains one of the century’s most fascinating men.
