520 8  The 1960 presidential election between John F. Kennedy and
       Richard Nixon is one of the most frequently described 
       political events of the twentieth century, yet the 
       accounts to date have been remarkably unbalanced. Far more
       attention is given to Kennedy's side than to Nixon's. The 
       imbalance began with the first book on that election, 
       Theodore White's The Making of the President 1960-in which
       (as he later admitted) White deliberately cast Kennedy as 
       the hero and Nixon as the villain-and it has been 
       perpetuated in almost every book since then. Few 
       historians have attempted an unbiased account of the 
       election, and none have done the archival research that 
       Irwin F. Gellman has done. Based on previously unused 
       sources such as the FBI's surveillance of JFK and the 
       papers of Leon Jaworski, vice-presidential candidate Henry
       Cabot Lodge, and many others, this book presents the first
       even-handed history of both the primary campaigns and the 
       general election. The result is a fresh, engaging 
       chronicle that shatters long-held myths and reveals the 
       strengths and weaknesses of both candidates
