Not for oneself -- The end depends upon the beginning -- Jack -- Will -- Harry -- John.
"William D. Cohan brings to life on the page four friends of his who died young. All four attended Andover, the most elite boarding school in America. Jack Berman, the child of impoverished Holocaust survivors, uses his unlikely Andover pedigree to achieve the American dream, only to be cut down in an unimaginable act of violence. Will Daniel, Harry Truman's grandson and the son of the managing editor of The New York Times, does everything possible to escape the burdens of a family legacy he's ultimately trapped by. Harry Bull builds the life of a careful, successful Chicago lawyer and heir to his family's fortune before taking an inexplicable and devastating risk on a beautiful summer day. And the life and death of John F. Kennedy, Jr., a story we think we know, is told here with surprising new details that cast it in an entirely different light"--Adapted from jacket.
