"The book succeeds in drawing together three fascinating characters into an illuminating historical intersection." ( New York Times Book Review ) "Once again Lance Morrow has elegantly woven together the historical threads of our time as no one else can. The Best Year of Their Lives is a narrative masterwork." (Carl Bernstein) In 1948, Lyndon Johnson, John Kennedy, and Richard Nixon were up-and-coming congressmen, all at pivotal points in their lives. In each of these ambitious politicians, Lance Morrow finds a streak of amorality and ruthlessness--each believed that the rules didn't apply to him. For each, lies of one kind or another would be a conduit to power; lies would also undo LBJ and Nixon's presidencies, and tarnish JFK's reputation. "What is unique is Morrow's idiosyncratic take on familiar history, and that's enough to cast the three presidents in a different light." ( Washington Post ) " The Best Year of Their Lives is a fun read with descriptions, insights, and observations that can appeal to all of your biases." ( Chicago Tribune )
