Abstract "John F. Kennedy's 1957 speech calling for Algerian independence is one of his most important and controversial-but least recognized-speeches, although many Kennedy books are careful to mention it and indicate its importance. This book discusses all the major aspects of Kennedy's speech from its preparation to its aftermath"-- Provided by publisher.
