Even today, almost five decades after John F. Kennedy was slain, the public continues to be captivated by the "Kennedy Curse" and new theories about what really happened on that fateful day in 1963. For nearly 50 years former Secret Service agent Clint Hill has lived with the unimaginable guilt of losing a president on his watch and has obeyed an honor code of silence, refusing to contribute to any books about the assassination. Until now.

Polls reveal that 85 percent of Americans believe there was a conspiracy behind Lee Harvey Oswald. Some even believe Oswald was entirely innocent. In this encyclopedic, absorbing audiobook, Vincent Bugliosi shows how the public has come to believe such lies about the day that changed the course of history. Bugliosi has devoted almost 20 years of his life to this project, and is determined to show that, despite the overwhelming popular perception, Oswald killed Kennedy and acted alone.

Marina and Lee is one of the best and truest audiobooks about the Kennedy assassination. Priscilla Johnson McMillan came to the story with a unique knowledge of the two main characters. In the 1950s she knew Kennedy well for a time when he was hospitalized with Addison's disease. She talked to him frequently, brought him books, knew his wife, and formed a strong opinion of the sort of man he was. What is astonishing is that she also knew Lee Harvey Oswald.

Daniel McEvoy has a problem. Well, really, he has several, but for this Irish ex-pat bouncer at a seedy, small-time casino, the fact that his girlfriend was just murdered in the parking lot is uppermost in his mind. That is until lots of people around him start dying, and not of natural causes. Suddenly, Daniel’s got half the New Jersey mob, dirty cops, and his man-crazy upstairs neighbor after him, and he still doesn't know what's going on.

His encyclopedic knowledge enables him to connect the dots among the players, the organizations, and the unacknowledged collusions--the deep politics-- of our often troubled political system. Deep Politics on Oswald, Mexico, and Cuba, originally published in 1995, narrows the focus of Scott's earlier Deep Politics and the Death of JFK.

Blood, Money, & Power exposes the secret, high-level conspiracy in Texas that led to President John F. Kennedy’s death and the succession of Lyndon B. Johnson as president in 1963. Attorney Barr McClellan, a former member of L.B.J.’s legal team, uses hundreds of newly released documents, including insider interviews, court papers, and the Warren Commission, to illuminate the maneuvers, payoffs, and power plays that revolved around the assassination of Kennedy and to expose L.B.J.’s involvement in the murder plot.

Publisher's Summary
Steve Gillon follows Lee Harvey Oswald for the 48 hours after the Kennedy assassination in search of answers to the question that has been troubling America for the past five decades: Why did he shoot JFK?
The Warren Commission speculated that Oswald was simply a deranged sociopath. But recently declassified materials raise new troubling questions. Where was Oswald going when he fled the School Book Depository Building on Friday afternoon? Is it possible that Cuban intelligence officials may have encouraged Oswald to commit the crime and promised to help him escape?
This audiobook goes back to the Dallas Municipal Building and recreates the interrogation sessions. What emerges from this expose is refreshingly new, and more complicated, portrait of the man who assassinated President John F. Kennedy.

Another Kennedy Assassination Book
Oh, no...not another book on the Kennedy assassination? Yep! and, this one covers the period of time between Oswald's shooting and his shooting death by Jack Ruby. It was written entirely by the author's research and he cites written and oral references and draws appropriate conclusions. It also provides insight into a short period of history and illuminates facts not previously known. I liked the read/listen and will look for more of Gillon's books.

Disappointing and shallow
Most all the info regarding the timeline are well known. Lots of Bugliosi reference, so if you enjoy being referred to as an irrational person when, for instance, you just don’t buy the ‘Jack Ruby’s a good guy’ for saving Jackie Kennedy from a trial, this book’s for you. Me? I’m a little insulted by the continual barrage of ‘you dumb conspirators you!!’ Me? The only conspiracy I see that’s obvious is the ‘Magic Bullet Conspiracy’!!

An Interesting Listen enhanced by a Great Narrator
Steven Gillon stated the facts as he saw them. Michael Lackey breathed life into those facts. I really did not learn anything new other than the very close relationship between the Press and the Police. THAT was a surprise to this listener I can tell you!
In my humble opinion, after listening to this book twice, I find it totally implausible that Oswald acted alone. This book, based on much research, really does reiterate that Oswald was not at all mature or sufficiently organized to even contemplate this horrendous act.
Not everyone's 'cup of tea' but I enjoyed it.

Get Pronunciation Correct
I have listened many audiobooks and articles about the Kennedy assassination and one glaring mispronunciation occurs regularly. This error should be very apparent to anyone who has read about, listened to or visited the site in Dallas. It is pronounced like DEALEY (as in deal) plaza not DAILEY. Either the narrator or if there's a "proof listener" or anyone interested in the subject should know the correct name of where our President was shot. This is a very common error and it's not cool to not know. Otherwise the book is pretty good. A lot of details are included although many of the "facts" presented in this book differ from other accounts of the incidents surrounding 11/22/63, such as what did Jack Ruby really say as he was about to shoot Oswald?

Excellent
Excellent accounting of this weird and crazy individual whose gotten almost 60 years of fame and counting that he didn't earn or deserve. Well researched and well written. In addition to setting forth a detailed timeline of Oswald;'s last two days, thoughtfully discusses (and cogently refutes) many of the top conspiracy theories, not as an agenda but as a deep consideration of the facts now available to us.
