Description
The Patriarch tells the full story of Joseph P. Kennedy, the founder of the twentieth century's most famous political dynasty. Nasaw tracks Kennedy's astonishing passage from East Boston outsider to supreme Washington insider. Kennedy's seemingly limitless ambition drove his career to the pinnacles of success as a banker, World War I shipyard manager, Hollywood studio head, broker, Wall Street operator, New Deal presidential adviser, and founding chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission. This story is not only of one of America's most wealthiest and powerful Americans, but also of the family he raised and the children who completed the journey he had begun.
