Living and the Dead Robert McNamara and Five Lives of a Lost War

"Hendrickson's book, 'The Living and the Dead'...is a remarkable literary and journalistic achievement, a stunning portrait of the most conflicted public man of our time. The McNamara whom Hendrickson depicts is bright, fierce, complicated, anxious to do good, but fatally flawed, his naked ambition to exercise power always overwhelming his other, more humane side."Hendrickson, Paul is the author of 'Living and the Dead Robert McNamara and Five Lives of a Lost War', published 1997 under ISBN 9780679781172 and ISBN 067978117X.
