TIME: IDEAS Features Excerpt from Morgenthau
“BOBBY KENNEDY, the youngest Attorney General that the country had seen since 1814, came into the Department of Justice with a battle plan.
…’Bob Kennedy,’ as those who knew him best often called RFK, intended to fight a long campaign. ‘Bob planned a war,’ Jack Miller, his Criminal Division chief, would say, ‘and Morgy’ — the nickname Robert M. Morgenthau had acquired among the Kennedy men — ‘was going to be central to it.’”
