The hardcover Profiles In Courage book is a timeless classic that is still relevant today. An inspirational tome, the pivotal volume written by the late president, introduces us to American heroes from different classes and races. The John F Kennedy book would go on to be awarded a Pulitzer Prize, and launch the Profiles in Courage Awards, which honor brave citizens today.

The hardcover Profiles In Courage book was written in 1955 by the then junior senator from the state of Massachusetts, John F. Kennedy, and Profiles in Courage served as a clarion call to every American. The inspiring true accounts of eight unsung heroic acts by American patriots at different junctures in our nation's history, Kennedy's book became required reading, an instant classic, and was awarded the Pulitzer Prize. Now, the John F Kennedy book, Profiles in Courage, remains a moving, powerful, and relevant testament to the indomitable national spirit and an unparalleled celebration of that most noble of human virtues. This special "P.S." edition of Profiles in Courage commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the book's publication. Included in the JFK book, Profiles in Courage, a new edition, along with vintage photographs and an extensive author biography, are Kennedy's correspondence about the writing project, contemporary reviews of the book, a letter from Ernest Hemingway, and two rousing speeches from recipients of the Profile in Courage Award.
