At the age of fifteen, on the twenty-second of November nineteen sixty-three, Eddy J Neyts heard the news that American President John F Kennedy had been assassinated. Ever since, Neyts has been passionately building the most extensive private collection of written material he could find about the man he thought terrific. He found that many authors who have written about Kennedy have yet to write accurately due to poor research and sensationalism. Who was Kennedy's father, the ruthless, womanizing businessman, Joseph P. Kennedy? Why was John Kennedy described in the family as the sickly brother? How did Kennedy injure his back? For the answers to these and other questions, read LIFE IS UNFAIR THE TRUTHS AND LIES ABOUT JOHN F KENNEDY by Eddy J Neyts. The historically accurate documentation of Neyts lifetime collection of all things John F Kennedy.

Everything about LIFE IS UNFAIR THE TRUTHS AND LIES ABOUT JOHN F KENNEDY is fantastic. The genealogical research and family trees at the beginning of the book are beneficial. I enjoyed the chapter dedicated to Kennedy's father, which gives interesting information on the early shaping of Kennedy's character. John F Kennedy has always been a romanticized figure throughout my life. I was not born when he died, but my mum loved him, and I have been told she cried for weeks when he was assassinated.

For many, Kennedy is remembered as the handsome, young, debonair thirty-fifth President of America. Neyts writes that all of this is true, but I was interested to read the chapter on Kennedy's family. John F Kennedy's older brother Joe was the golden boy; he was robust and consistently predicted to do well. In contrast, John was the frail and sickly younger brother. It is a testament to how his father bought him up that Kennedy was elected President. Another chapter in the book which I read with great interest was about The Cuban Missile Crisis, a part of American history I have never understood.

There was nothing to dislike about LIFE IS UNFAIR THE TRUTHS AND LIES ABOUT JOHN F KENNEDY by Eddy J Neots. The book is extensively researched and provides a complete history of the life and times of John F Kennedy.

There are quite a few grammatical errors in the acknowledgments. However, as this part of the book is the personal thanks of Eddy J Neots, a Belgian author, I was pleased to overlook them, especially as the rest of the book is well-edited. I enjoyed reading LIFE IS UNFAIR THE TRUTHS AND LIES ABOUT JOHN F KENNEDY, and I am delighted to award this book a resounding 5 out of 5 stars.

LIFE IS UNFAIR THE TRUTHS AND LIES ABOUT JOHN F KENNEDY by Eddy J Neots is a weighty tomb; there are lots of facts and dates to take in. I recommend this book to historians who want factually correct history. Furthermore, this book would be appreciated by anyone interested in American history and John F Kennedy, his life, election, marriage, health, the Cuban Missile Crisis, and all the things that make John F Kennedy's legacy live on!

The book that talks about the life story of the former America president John F Kennedy. I would love to read it. Nice review.

[Chandelier Eden]

This is a nice review. The author must be a hard worker to dig through multiple research papers is not a child's joke. One of the things I love about this book is the truth about life, life is so unpredictable. One might be thought to do well, but doesn't. Then another might be thought to not do well, but does. It balances one point out: treat people with dignity and respect, no matter where they seem to be today.
