Before John F. Kennedy became a legendary young president he was the junior senator from Massachusetts. The Senate was where JFK's presidential ambitions were born and first realized. In the first book to deal exclusively with JFK's Senate years, author John T. Shaw looks at how the young Senator was able to catapult himself on the national stage. Tip O'Neill once quipped that Kennedy received more publicity for less accomplishment than anyone in Congress. But O'Neill didn't understand that Kennedy saw a different path to congressional influence and ultimately the presidency. Unlike Lyndon Johnson, the Democratic leader in the Senate, JFK never aspired to be "The Master of the Senate" who made deals and kept the institution under his control. Instead, he envisioned himself as a "Historian-Scholar-Statesman" in the mold of his hero Winston Churchill which he realized with the 1957 publication of Profiles of Courage that earned JFK a Pulitzer Prize and public limelight. Smart, dashing, irreverent and literary, the press could not get enough of him. Yet, largely overlooked has been Kennedy's tenure on a special Senate committee to identify the five greatest senators in American history—JFK's work on this special panel coalesced his relationships in Congress, and helped catapult him toward the presidency. Based on primary documents from JFK's Senate years as well as memoirs, oral histories, and interviews with his top aides, JFK in the Senate provides new insight into an underappreciated aspect of his political career.

This is an excellent read. John Shaw has other fine books and this is his best. If you are looking for Kennedy anecdotes on Kennedy's infidelities or assassination theories, this is the wrong book. This is an insightful book that goes in depth on Kennedy's Senate years. It gives a good perspective on how Kennedy developed as a person into a solid presidential candidate and what his contributions were as a legislature and member of the Senate. The focus gives new insights - it reminds me of Band of Rivals. Having read many things about Lincoln, the perspective of that book gave me a different look and much more knowledge of the man and his career. This book does the same thing - by offering a detailed perspective on the time JFK spent in the Senate. It has substance but is not dense, it is well told and a pleasure to read.
