KENNEDY'S LAST DAYS The Assassination That Defined a Generation

Earphones Award Winner

by | Read by Edward Herrmann

Children Ages 10+ • 3.25 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2013

This historical audiobook focuses on the events that culminated in President John Fitzgerald Kennedy’s assassination. Although the book is targeted for a younger audience, Edward Herrmann’s narration is magnificently suited for both adult and child listeners. He leads his audience expertly through this fact-filled account to its unforgettable end. Herrmann creates a compelling cadence that builds to a crescendo as the drama and horror unfold in the last chapters of Kennedy’s life. This will be the first time that many young listeners hear a detailed account of how one man’s anger and delusions changed the course of American history. Adult listeners who remember that fateful day will feel a strong connection to Herrmann’s presentation. E.E.S.
