Changing history

Jeff Greenfield has worn many hats during his storied career—including speechwriter, essayist, political pundit and television host—but perhaps his favorite occupation is author of alternative histories. Greenfield’s latest work of speculative fiction, “If Kennedy Lived: The First and Second Terms of President John F. Kennedy: An Alternate History,” posits how JFK’s leadership may have changed the Vietnam War, The Civil Rights Movement and the Cold War, among other events. Before seeing Greenfield speak at the Toledo-Lucas County Public Library for the Authors! Authors! series, be sure to read our online interview with him at toledocitypaper.com. Thursday, November 7. 7pm. $10. McMaster Center, Main Library, 325 Michigan St.
