A Memoir
Edward M. Kennedy

Senator Edward M. Kennedy (February 22, 1932-August 25, 2009) chronicles his remarkable life in this landmark autobiography. The youngest of nine children, Kennedy writes with candor about his private life, his grief over the untimely deaths of his brothers, John and Robert, and his historic work as a U.S. Senator, including his long crusade for health care reform. True Compass is a complex portrait of a politician and the patriarch of America’s most celebrated family.
