This is not just another so-called "conspiracy" theory/analysis book. Daniel Ellsberg (Pentagon Papers) says it’s by far the best thing published on the Kennedy assassination, as it’s largely based on new documentation that became available in the late 1990s. The book thoroughly and simply chronicles the "story" in light of substantial evidence that recasts our understanding of Kennedy. It documents JFK’s radical shift from Cold Warrior to Peacemaker, setting the stage for his undoing.

The implications are particularly significant in light of Obama's moral leadership in 2009 and the future. Should President Obama also turn toward peace, would he likewise be resisted and threatened? Would history repeat itself?
