The events that occurred the weekend of November 22, 1963, are perhaps the most memorable and shocking to generations of Americans. The assassination of the President of the United States, and the subsequent murder on live television of his alleged assassin, defied logic and set into motion nearly fifty years of debate about what really happened that fateful weekend in Dallas. Hundreds, if not thousands, of so-called conspiracy theorists, or assassination researchers, have emerged throughout the decades, each presenting his own idea of what occurred. Edwards has spent nearly 35 years reading books, articles, and any other available assassination-related materials; he has carefully reviewed the Zapruder film; and he has conducted first-hand interviews of numerous witnesses who were there that day, thoroughly chronicling their many interesting stories and unique perspectives. While Edwards believes that there was a conspiracy surrounding the assassination of the president and the murder of Lee Harvey Oswald, in this book he looks at the events a little differently than most--not focusing on who was where and when, but rather in relating the stories of the many people he met along the way. The book is at times humorous, sarcastic, and opinionated as it takes the reader with the author on his long journey--a journey that culminates in Edwards' becoming one of the most well-known researchers of the JFK assassination.
