The Last Campaign
The Last Campaign
Synopsis
The Last Campaign follows Robert F. Kennedy's 1968 run for the presidency, from his entry into the race to his assassination eighty-two days later. Still grieving his brother's murder and troubled by the country's divisions over race, poverty, and Vietnam, Kennedy launched a campaign that drew large, emotional crowds across the country. Drawing on archival research and interviews with people who worked alongside Kennedy, Thurston Clarke traces the day-to-day arc of the campaign — its speeches, strategy, and setbacks — and its abrupt end after the California primary.
