. . . Selected Speeches and Writings;
Introduction by Gore Vidal
Vintage Books 1992.
I highly recommend it for the sheer eloquence of the man. It's a joy to read even the simple letters to friends, but also a letter of condolence to the mother of a slain soldier. There are several speeches reproduced in the book. Given the tenor and substance of today's political writing and speech, it's therapeutic to become immersed in a work such as this one with examples of masterful and effective use of the English language.
