  • The Senator from New England: John F
    Application for Faculty Research Grant Title of Book Project: “The Senator from New England: John F. Kennedy, 1952-1960” If awarded, this faculty research grant would be used to finance a two-week, full- time research project at the Dwight D. Eisenhower Library in Abilene, Kansas during the summer of 2008. Any remaining grant funds would be used to partially finance the research of Joseph P. Kennedy’s papers at the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston. I am currently waiting for the Kennedy library to decide if it will grant me permission to research Joseph P. Kennedy’s papers. Both of the above primary research efforts are part of a long-term book project tentatively entitled, The Senator from New England: John F. Kennedy, 1952-1960. I have already completed archival research on this project at Dartmouth College, John F. Kennedy Library, Boston Public Library, Massachusetts Historical Society, Bates College, Margaret Chase Smith Center, University of Connecticut, and several Massachusetts newspapers. The tentative thesis of this book project is that John F. Kennedy partially prepared for his 1960 presidential campaign by uniting Democratic politicians and convention delegates throughout New England behind his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination by the end of the 1950s. In order to accomplish this partisan, regional objective, Kennedy intentionally developed and projected a reputation as a senator who would lead the promotion of New England’s economic and infrastructure interests on a cooperative, regional, bipartisan basis. In addition to previous research at the Kennedy library, I have examined the papers of New England senators and governors from the 1950s, including Prescott Bush and Thomas Dodd of Connecticut, Dennis Roberts and John Pastore of Rhode Island, Margaret Chase Smith 2 and Edmund Muskie of Maine, and Leverett Saltonstall and Foster Furcolo of Massachusetts.
