A riveting new work and fresh take on the lead-up to the presidential election of 1960, drawing timely parallels to the choice Americans face in 2024. It’s January 2, 1960: the day that Massachusetts Senator John F. Kennedy declared his candidacy; and with this opening scene, Chris Wallace offers listeners a front-row seat to history. From the challenge of primary battles in a nation that had never elected a Catholic president, to the intense machinations of the national conventions—where JFK chose Lyndon B. Johnson as his running mate over the impassioned objections of his brother Bobby—this is a nonfiction political thriller filled with intrigue, cinematic action, and fresh reporting. Like with many popular histories, listeners will be familiar with the story, but few will know the behind-the-scenes details, told here with gripping effect. Featuring some of history’s most remarkable characters, thrilling action, and vivid details, Countdown 1960 follows a group of extraordinary politicians, civil rights leaders, Hollywood stars, labor bosses, and mobsters during a pivotal year in American history. The election of 1960 ushered in the modern era of presidential politics, with televised debates, private planes, and slick advertising. In fact, television played a massive role. It allowed voters to see the candidates’ appearances. More than 70 million Americans watched one or all four debates. The public turned to television to watch campaign rallies. And on the night of the election, the contest between Kennedy and Nixon was so close that Americans were glued to their televisions long after dawn to see who won. The year 1960 was a deeply contentious, perilous time for America. It also was a moment our nation survived due to courage, leadership, and patriotism.

一部引人入胜的新作，也是对1960年总统选举前情的全新解读，巧妙地将美国2024年的抉择与之进行了及时的类比。时间已经来到了1960年1月2日，马萨诸塞州参议员约翰·F. 肯尼迪宣布参选的日子；在这一幕开场中，克里斯·沃尔什让收听者获得了历史的一席之地。从一个从未选出过天主教总统的国家面对的初选挑战，到全国大会中的激烈运作——肯尼迪选择与林登·B·约翰逊搭档作为他的竞选伙伴，尽管这遭到了他弟弟罗伯特的热情反对—这部非虚构的政治惊悚片充满了悬念、电影级的动作场面和新鲜报道。像许多流行历史一样，收听者们对这个故事并不陌生，但很少有人知道这些幕后细节，在这里得到了生动的表现。 本书聚焦于历史上的最出色人物，充满刺激的行动以及生动的细节，它跟随1960年美国历史上关键一年中一群非凡的政治家、民权领袖、好莱坞明星、劳工领袖和黑帮成员。1960年的总统选举标志着现代总统政治时代的到来，电视辩论、私人飞机和亮丽广告的出现。事实上，电视发挥了巨大的作用。它让选民得以看见候选人的风采。超过7亿美国人观看了至少一场，甚至全部四场辩论。公众转向电视观看竞选集会。而在选举之夜，肯尼迪与尼克松之间的竞争如此接近，以至于美国民众在拂晓之后依然守着电视机，以查看谁最终胜出。1960年是对于美国来说充满争议、险境的一年；但也是由于勇气、领导力和爱国主义而得以存活下来的一年。
