I’m old enough to be one of those people who knew exactly where they were when they heard the news of Kennedy’s assassination. I’d just returned home from a school dance and the tv was on as I walked into the house and it became a moment frozen in time. The news was so shocking and over the next days, coverage was non stop. Now similar events are almost routine and it’s difficult to remember the worldwide impact of the Kennedy assassination.

Over the decades, I’ve followed the investigations and allegations with interest. I’ve read numerous books on the subject, including a synopsis of the ( laughable) Warren Report, seen documentaries, films and viewed various conspiracy theories. It’s such a complicated web of deceit and cover up, unravelling the strands of truth is complex.

I’ve really enjoyed Randall Windle’s exploration of the event. It’s clearly well researched and he takes an interesting perspective by placing it in the context of the time. Again, looking back, it’s easy to forget the Cold War; the world had been on the brink of nuclear war over Cuba a few months earlier and there was a very different political and world climate. Oswald was always an enigmatic figure, the American Secret Services and their heads had an agenda there were reasons for some to want Kennedy off the world stage. Windles has an engaging and readable style and presents the complexities, possibilities and facts in a very accessible way. Anyone looking for a single book to present an unbiased look at the reality and background of the principle players need look no further. This is a brilliant book on the subject.

Such a fascinating subject which has generated so many books and theories. The title gave me a sense of something different. This screams research and due diligence. It takes all the available info and places it in the concept of the times and events. It asks difficult questions and backs up everything. It was long but needed to be so. This is a good unbiased look at all the evidence available . As always due to the nature and topic there can be no final answer. I really enjoyed this and learnt new facts.

I’ve never met a book about the JFK assassination I didn’t want to read. I can easily give the audio tour at the 6th floor museum. This was a good book for someone who knows A LOT about JFK, his assassination and conspiracies. I enjoyed how the author spent a lot of time on Oswald and his background, along with what was going on in the world at the time with the Cold War and the Cuban conflict.

This was a fantastic look into what was going on with JFK’s assassination. It had a great case about what happened and was researched in a way that worked overall.
