Synopsis

From New York Times bestselling author Jerry Oppenheimer comes a sensational biography of the son of the legendary Senator and troubled standard bearer of America's most fabled political dynasty.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. inherited his assassinated father's piercing blue eyes and Brahmin style, earning a reputation as the nation's foremost environmental activist and lawyer - the "toxic avenger" - battling corporate polluters. But in this, the most revelatory portrait ever of a Kennedy, Oppenheimer places Bobby Jr., leader of the third generation of America's royal family, under a journalistic microscope.
Based on scores of exclusive, candid on-the-record interviews, public and private records, and correspondence, Jerry Oppenheimer paints a balanced, objective portrait of this virtually unaccounted-for scion of the Kennedy dynasty. Like his slain father, the iconic senator and presidential hopeful, RFK Jr. was destined for political greatness. Why it never happened is revealed in this first-ever biography of him.

Goodreads review by David on July 12, 2023

(I wanted to re-post this book in case anyone on my Friends list has any possible inkling of voting for this clown for president. RFK, Jr. is a ridiculous disgrace to his father's and family's memory, and should NOT be supported. This book pretty much tells it all. This guy is a disturbed charlatan,......more

Goodreads review by Elizabeth on July 15, 2018

I was interested in learning more about RFK, Jr., especially with the discussions of Trump naming him to a vaccine commission when he is a vaccine denier. I picked up this book in a used bookstore, so I gave it a read. It was probably the most salacious book I've ever read, with not even a People ma......more
