"A Son Remembers
In honor of Father’s Day and the release of Mark Shriver’s new book, A Good Man: Rediscovering My Father, Sargent Shriver, we look at the close relationship of a father and son—and take a glimpse at the Shiver and Kennedy clans over the years. From Hyannis Port to suburban Washington, D.C., to the 1972 campaign trail, Mark Shriver offers a rare, insiders’ look at two of America’s most famous families."
