In this episode, I interviewed author Tim English about his book, The Kennedys' New York: American Royalty in the Greatest City in the World, which I recommend even if Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has permanently soured you on the Kennedy family or if you prefer New Orleans and Barcelona to New York.
You will hear:
- Why Tim chose to write about the Kennedys specifically and how he chose to make it different from other books on the family
- How the Kennedy family carried on in the wake of the assassinations of JFK and Bobby to keep their political and social work alive
- Details about the life and tragic death of JFK Jr.
- Where people can go if they are interested in visiting places in New York that had significance with the Kennedys
- And more!
