Summary
Set against the grand panorama of twentieth century world events, Schwartz captures the remarkable life and spirit of climber and medical visionary Hans Kraus. His pioneering work in muscles and fitness uncovered shocking truths about the health of American children, and his work curing back pain brought him into the Kennedy White House and inner circle of Camelot. Schwartz includes the previously untold story of Kennedy's debilitating back problems, including Kennedy's White House medical records and first-time interviews with two Kennedy White House doctors.
