The Girl On The Stairs
[My search for a missing
witness to the assassination of John F.Kennedy] |
|
Ernest Barry
2010 |
On November 22,1963 a
young Victoria Elizabeth Adams stood behind a fourth-floor window of the
Texas School Book Depository in Dallas. She watched as John Kennedy was
murdered in the streets below. Then, with a co-worker in tow, she ran down
the back stairs to get outside and determine what had happened.
At that moment, her life changed forever.
The timing of her descent posed serious problems for the Warren
Commission's agenda that Lee Harvey Oswald was the gunman. If she was
telling the thuth, Miss Adams was on the same stairs at the same time as
the escaping assassin. Yet she had seen and heard no one. When she
testified, she was discredited, humiliated and branded a liar. Told she
had simply erred and came down those stairs later than she thought, Miss
Adams begged to have her story corroborated by her co-worker of by a timed
test conducted to determine her accuracy.
Instead, she was ignored.
Knowing the truth and now fearing for her life because of it, she went
into hiding, content to die with her secret knowledge.
With a background as an investigative journalist, the author began his
search for Miss Adams in 1967. It took him 35 years to track down this
elusive witness but when he did, the truths behind Miss Adams were finally
revealed.
This is the story the government didn't want you to hear and actually
fabricated evidence so you wouldn't hear it.
Now, it can be told. |

Ayton, a historian and former teacher and lecturer in the UK and the USA,
has spent 30 years sifting through the baffling profusion of hard evidence

|
Friedel E.Z.
2007 |
This is a Conspiracy Book
: The first hand experience of the Naval Surgeon assigned to perform the
Kennedy autopsy documents a conspiracy at the highest levels. Before the
forensic exam , the gunshot evidence was changed by a covert team of
specialists. Two wounds from the front became one artificial one from the
rear. The new findings became the key evidence for the immediate and final
conclusion. There had been one, and only one, shooter. In less than
twenty-four hours, the lone assassin had become a permanent part of
American history and Lee Harvey Oswald was cast as one of it's great
villians. Factual and frightening. Precise CSI technology, painstaking
research, and a unique deathbed revelation come together to answer the key
questions. WHO DONE IT and HOW HAVE THEY MANAGED TO COVER IT UP? |

The Kennedy
Assassination - Beyond Conspiracy |
|
Jennings Peter
ABC News
DVD - 2003 |
Utilizing modern technology,
computer animator Dale Myers created a digital simulation of the only
known film of the murder, a 16mm home movie taken by Leon Zapruder, a
bystander that filmed the fatal shots. Then Myers matched this digital
film to a three-dimensional computer model of Dealey Plaza which he
created that reconstructs the plaza exactly as it appeared at the time of
the murder. The resulting digital animation allowed Myers to re-create the
exact viewpoint from any perspective within the plaza at the moment and
finally provide concrete evidence of whether or not Oswald was a lone
assassin or if a conspiracy actually existed. Also examined in this
excellent DVD is new evidence discovered years later on an audio tape from
an open police microphone at the scene and other theories that circulated
including Communist ties and mob involvement in the assassination. |

1965 |
Never
before has such a large proportion of the American public felt so
instantly and closely a part of events of great national importance as
during the tragic hours and days that followed the assassination of
President Kennedy. When scholars recovered from the shock of the
first news, many of them realized that this was a chapter in national
history that should be studied. They sought above all to understand the
public reaction to a great disaster, and how the flow of information
helped shape that reaction.
This book presents the most significative results of the studies that were
undertaken. |

The Kennedy Detail
[JFK's
Secret Service agents break their silence] |
|
Blaine Gerald
with Lisa McCubbin
2010 |
The Secret Service is an
elite team of men who share a single mission : to protect the president of
the United States. On November 22,1963 these men failed - and a country
would never be the same. Now, for the first time, a member of JFK's Secret
Service detail revals the inside story of the assassination, the weeks and
days that led to it and its hearttrending aftermath. This extraordinary
book is a moving, intimate portrait of dedication, courage and loss.
Drawing on the memories of his fellow agents, Jerry Blaine captures the
energetic, crowd-loving young president, who banned agents from his car
and often plunged into raucous crowds with little warning. He describes
the careful planning that went into JFK's Texas swing, the worries and
concerns that agents, working long hours with little food or rest, had
during the trip. And he describes the intensely private first lady making
her first-ever political appearance with her husband, just months
after losing a newborn baby.
"The Kennedy Detail" is a portrait of incredible camaraderie and
incredible heartbreak - a true must-read story of heroism in its most
complex and human form. |
The Kennedy Half Century
[The
Presidency, Assassination and Lasting Legacy of John F.Kennedy] |
|
Larry J.Sabato
2013 |
When John F.Kennedy
entered the presidential limousine at Love Field on November 22,1963, he
began his ride into history.
On the fifth anniversary of his assassination, celebrated political
scientist Larry J.Sabato - himself inspired as a child by JFK and his
presidency - explores the fascinating powerful and often controversial
influence that Kennedy still wields in politics and among the public.
Sabato chronicles the dramatic, contentious campaign that brought JFK to
the Oval Office, and the events over the next three years that ultimately
led him to his death in Dealey plaza. His pulsating and revealing
reexamination of JFK's assassination is based on heretofore unknown
information to which Sabato has had exclusive access, and it significantly
recasts our understanding of that fateful day in Dallas. |
The Kennedys
[The
conspiracy to destroy a dynasty] |
|
Smith Matthew
2005 |
Conspiracy book.
From back cover:
"THE KENNEDYS uncovers the truth behind the greatest conspiracy story of
the twentieth century: the devastanting plot against America's first
family. Mindblogging in its implications, the conspiracy aimed at changing
the direction of American politics but went much more further, altering
the political direction of the whole world.
In the view of the conspirators, John F.Kennedy should never have become
President. His plans to put the needs of the people before those of big
business were intolerable. There were fears that he had a socialist streak
which may well be identifiable as communist. From the moment he took
office, he was on his way out. It was only a question of time.
This is a story of hatred, revenge and murder that was covered up by stark
fear for may years.
THE KENNEDYS is an unbelievably dramatic, dynamic and awesomely gripping
work that will shock and enlighten many." |

1992 |
An original conspiracy
book with a different theory on JFK Assassination (even if not very
credible in my opinion).
According to the authors a look at the assassination of John F. Kennedy
offers evidence that places Charles Rogers--a psychopath wanted for the
murder and dismemberment of his parents in 1965--at the site of the crime.

Stone Roger
with Mike Colapietro

From inside cover :
"What does legendary political operative Roger Stone know that historians
Robert Caro and Robert Dallek and Fox news host Bill O'Reilly don't?
He knows that Lyndon Johnson was behind the assassination of President
John F.Kennedy.
Combining decades of insider political knowledge with cutting-edge
research, Roger Stone lays out the case that Lyndon Johnson was behind the
murder of Kennedy and numerous other victims along the way. Stone reveals
that Richard Nixon was convinced that Johnson had a hand in Kennedy's
murder - and that both Barry Goldwater and the KGB came to the same
conclusion." |

Oswald : accused assassin of President J.F.Kennedy |

Holloway Diane
2000 |
Lee Harvey Oswald, the
accused assassin of President John F.Kennedy, has remained an enigma for

personal investigation by Michael Eddowes and his team of investigators.
Encompassing not only intensive study of the Warren Commission's 26
volumes of Testimony and Exhibits, his research also involved thousands of
miles of travel in tracking down many of the people who could give or had
given pertinent information regarding the assassination and its aftermath. |

The People vs The
Warren Report |
|
Remington Rodger A.
2002 |
This
writing is by a late-comer to literature of the JFK assassination. It
began as fascination with problems perceived in the methodology of the
Warren Report, which he photocopied in 1995. Most troublesome was
reconciliation of the single bullet theory with the phenomenon of common
sense. Since 1997 that problem has generated an attempt to understand why
defenders and critics of the Warren Report cannot persuade the American
people to embrace differing conclusions and methodology. This writing
offers suggestions for future historians who will surely undertake to
write history of the JFK assassination. |

spellbinding narattive involving Jack Ruby (Lee Harvey Oswald's killer);
Ruby's attorney, Melvin Belli; mafia don Carlos Marcello and , ultimately,
the Kennedy brothers and their father. |

The
Schweiker-Hart Report
[The Investigation of the Assassination of President John F.Kennedy:
Performance of the Intelligence Agencies] |
|
AA.VV.
1976 |
The Senate Select
Committee to Study Governmental Operations with Respect to Intelligence
Activities, known as the "Church Committee" after its chairman Frank
Church, conducted a wide-ranging investigation of the intelligence
agencies in the post-Watergate period.
The Church Committee took public and private testimony from
hundreds of people, collected huge volumes of files from the FBI, CIA,
NSA, IRS, and many other federal agencies, and issued 14 reports in 1975
and 1976.
This Senate Select Committee "Book 5" report (issued in April 1976), often
referred to as the Schweiker-Hart Report after its authors,
discusses the performance of the CIA and FBI in the investigation of the
assassination of President Kennedy. The report analyzes the general
question of whether and by what degree the CIA and FBI withheld relevant
information from the Warren Commission, which was charged with
investigating Kennedy’s murder. Among the information unknown to the
Warren Commission (except Commissioner Allen Dulles) were the CIA’s plots
to kill Fidel Castro. With the public disclosure of these plots, the idea
that Castro “struck back” gained prominence with many at the time. The
Committee found that the evidence “indicates that the investigation of the
assassination was deficient” and “impeaches the process whereby the
intelligence agencies arrived at their own conclusions.” |

Kaiser David.
2008 |
David Kaiser is convinced
that the assassination of President John F.Kennedy was an appalling and
grisly conspiracy. With is investigative skills, he shows that the evnt of
November 22,1963 cannot be understood without fully grasping the two

against organized crime and the furtive quest of two administrations to

|
VHS
|
What
would have happened if the world's most infamous assassin had not been
murdered in Dallas? It would have been one of the most revealing criminal
trials in American history. But a single gunshot prevented it from taking
place. This extraordinary drama dares to ask what would have happened if
Lee Harvey Oswald had lived to stand trial for the assassination of JFK. A
respected cast, including Lorne Greene and Ben Gazzarra (who bears a
striking resemblance to the real Oswald) bring this hypothetical scenario
to life. |
The unanswered
questions about President Kennedy's Assassination |
|
Fox Sylvan
1975
|
Conspiracy book written in 1965 by Pulitzer Prize Winner Sylvan Fox and
then revised in this 1975 edition.
From back cover:
"Over a decade after the tragedy, the disturbing questions linger. This
was the first book to ask them in public. The story it tells, now fully
revised to include all the latest evidence, is still the most shocking
account of high-level negligence and deception in our history." |
The Warren
Commission Executive Session Transcripts |
|
AA.VV.
1964 |
The Warren Commission met
several times in executive session. The transcripts of these sessions were
made public over the years and are now available in complete unedited
form. The early transcripts include discussions of "problems" facing the
Commission, including the allegation that Lee Oswald was a paid FBI
informant.
The September 18 document is in the form of minutes rather than a
transcript. At this meeting Senator Russell voiced his doubts about the
report to be issued, and tried to get a dissenting opinion included. He
relayed his frustrations in a phone call to President Lyndon Johnson that
evening, a tape of which is now public. The minutes give no indication of
the conflict at this meeting, other than a vague and cryptic sentence on
the 3rd page. |
