In January 1961, less than two months after this recording, Schlesinger resigned from Harvard in order to accept an appointment as a Special Assistant to the newly elected President, John F. Kennedy. Schlesinger's lecture is introduced by Ben Padrow and Dr. Jessie Gilmore, Associate Professor of History.
