Countdown 1960 is a work of narrative political history by Chris Wallace, written with Mitch Weiss, that examines the 312 days leading up to the 1960 United States presidential election. The book focuses on the contest between John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon, but it is less a standard campaign recap than a behind the scenes account of how modern American politics began to take shape. Drawing on reporting and historical reconstruction, it explores the personalities, strategies, family roles, media pressures, and backstage decisions that defined the race. The book is positioned as part of Wallace’s Countdown series, which uses a day by day framework to show how major historical turning points develop through accumulated choices rather than a single decisive event. Its purpose is both explanatory and comparative: to show how 1960 reshaped campaign politics and to suggest why that election still matters for understanding later presidential contests.
