American Pop: Kennedy and the Cultural Machinery of Camelot is a stylish, sharp, and deeply insightful cultural history that unpacks how the Kennedy presidency became one of the most enduring myths in American life. Blending accessible scholarship with vivid narrative, author Taylor Prescott explores the feedback loop between politics and pop culture-how the Kennedy White House didn't just reflect the culture of the 1960s, but actively shaped it, and was in turn reshaped by it.
