Værk informationNot in Your Lifetime: The Defining Book on the J.F.K. Assassination af Anthony Summers
![]() Ingen Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. ![]() ![]() This is an exhaustive look at the JFK assassination. Summers covers the events on that fateful day in Dallas in great detail. He also gives a thorough account of who Lee Oswald was and who he may have involved himself with. This book is long. It is detailed. It is well written, but it is as exhausting as it is exhaustive. Maybe it is the subject matter that wore me out so, but I could not bring myself to finish the last few chapters. If you have any interest in the JFK assassination, especially conspiracy aspects of it, you will benefit from this book. Be aware, it is a mountain of information about a tragic and creepy event in U.S. history. A very good book but not as comprehensive as Jim Marrs "Crossfire". Very invloved, complex detailing means one has to concentrate. Good explanations of some recent developments & discoveries about the case. Good but not a work of completeness. No overall summary lets it down, I feel, as well as a lack of a descriptive "what if" scenario. Worth a look for those with an interest in the case though. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Updated with recent evidence on JFK's assassination: "The closest we have to that literary chimera, a definitive work on the events in Dallas" (The Boston Globe). "He was holding out his hand . . . He looked puzzled . . . Then he slumped in my lap . . . I kept bending over him saying, 'Jack, Jack, can you hear me? I love you, Jack . . .' The seat was full of blood and red roses . . . ." --Jacqueline Kennedy, recalling the fatal moment in Dallas Fifty years on, most Americans still feel they have not been told the truth about President Kennedy's death. Chief Justice Warren, who chaired the first inquiry, said "some things" that "involve security" might not be released in our lifetime. Millions of pages of assassination records were finally made public in the late 1990s. Yet the CIA is withholding more than a thousand documents under "national security"--until 2017. Why? Why hold these records back if--as we were told half a century ago--Lee Harvey Oswald was a lone assassin? Anthony Summers set out to write a reliable account of the murder mystery that haunts America.Not in Your Lifetime, in this fresh edition, is one of the finest books written on the assassination.
