The House of Kennedy

De: James Patterson

Narrado por: David Pittu

Now with an all-new bonus chapter - in the best-selling The House of Kennedy, “James Patterson applies his writerly skills to real-life history...re-telling the political clan’s rise and fall and rise again (and fall again) with novelistic style” (People).

The Kennedys have always been a family of charismatic adventurers, raised to take risks and excel, living by the dual family mottos: "To whom much is given, much is expected" and "Win at all costs". And they do - but at a price.

Across decades and generations, the Kennedys have occupied a unique place in the American imagination: charmed, cursed, at once familiar and unknowable. The House of Kennedy is a revealing, fascinating account of America's most storied family, as told by America's most trusted storyteller.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"When I wrote my first novel after several nonfiction works about politics, James Patterson lovingly lambasted me for infringing on his thriller territory. Now I know how he feels as he crosses into political nonfiction with this juicy and entertaining look at a family that continues to wield power and influence. He's too good - it isn't fair!" (Jake Tapper, CNN anchor and author of The Hellfire Club)

Excellent

I have read much over the years, but this was enlightening and very well done. I'm so glad I listened!

wonderful

I met the Kennedy 's as a college student wad a supporter of him
loved the book

such a great and detailed telling of the tragedy that is the Kennedy name

narration was great and loved how the story and facts unfolded. definitely recommend this

Enlightening!

As a lifelong reader of JFK, ( I'M 51, btw;) I was quite surprised to discover some of the information that had not been repeated anywhere else that I have previously read.. I thought it would be a more tedious read, but I couldn't shut it down! 🎯I thought there couldn't be anything to surprise me about "The Clan of Kennedy" by now, but I stand corrected, and feel in good company as well!

Camelot

This is one of the most complete works on the entire family that I’ve ever read. I am enamored by the Kennedy family and often think how much more they could’ve done for our country had some of their lives been cut so tragically short. The audible edition is narrated well and makes the story even more inviting. I did not want to put it down and it did not disappoint.

Great Story.... but.....

Interested story. I like how the author sorta skipped around to make everyone’s story was told. I only have 2 complaints:
1) The narrator sound very robotic.
2) The music that’s played between every chapter is a little annoying. I know it’s only like 5 to 8 seconds of music but each time it drove me crazy!

Kennedy

Really enjoyed this book. Love the history of The Kennedys. As usual, w/JamesPayterson, I couldnt put it down.

Love the detailed stories.

The detail in the stories was amazing! James Patterson shows his true merit as an author .

Fantastic!

Loved everything about this book. I have always been fascinated with the Kennedys and have read many books about them. This was the most complete and done in almost a novel form. Highly recommend

Long but good, well detailed!!

I wasn’t expecting so much history and detail that went beyond Jack and Bobby. It was long, but very good. Quite interesting and felt factual and not just another sensationalized recount of the famed Kennedy family. I felt I learned and understood more. I am very pleased with this book and highly recommend it.
