Collier and Horowitz capture the strain of ambition; the dynastic ebb and flow; the invention of a mythic identity; the corrosive underside of the dream of Camelot--developed over four generations--that led one young Kennedy to say, \"We broke the rules and in turn we were broken by them.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Kennedys: An American Drama\u003c\/i\u003e is a fascinating and brilliantly comprehensive history that brings together, for the first time, all the complex strains of the story of the Kennedys' rise and fall. The authors have added new material showing the effect of the death of John F.
