from Harper Perennial
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
I was quite disappointed in this book. I thought the topic sounded interesting, and indeed it is. However, the hyperbolic writing style constantly gets in the way.

A well written book with a flair for the extreme. The author has taken numerous facts about the assassination and it's particpants and stretched them with assumptions that are conceivable but not proven. A wonderful story, but a disclaimer should be attached allowing readers to understand that some... more info
