Sole Assassin of President Kennedy, or the "Fall Guy" for a Conspiracy? Or Something Else? This Updated Edition with Added Material Provides New Answers. Among the many enigmas in the saga of the Kennedy assassination, Lee Harvey Oswald remains among the most enigmatic. The Warren Commission painted a portrait of a lone malcontent but still could find no motive for his alleged actions. Some conspiracy books attempt to turn Oswald into a deep cover intelligence agent, always on assignment whether defecting to the Soviet Union or distributing pro-Castro pamphlets. Other authors ignore Oswald altogether.In The Oswald Puzzle, experienced researchers Larry Hancock (Someone Would Have Talked, Tipping Point) and David Boylan square the circle. Taking full measure of the same data that the Warren Commission collected, the authors paint a contrarian picture of Oswald, a man who may surprise you. And then, using their expertise and new revelations about the extent to which CIA officers were aware of Oswald's activities months before the assassination, they explore how the CIA itself was preparing to use Oswald in a "black" propaganda campaign as well as how Oswald’s own Cuba agenda was used to maneuver and ultimately set him up as the perfect patsy—pointing the assassination toward the Castro regime.Did members of a special team organized to kill Fidel Castro turn against President Kennedy and sacrifice Oswald in an effort to take down Castro as well? Hancock and Boylan, in considerable detail, make a case for just that in a scenario that reconciles Oswald's actual history and character with the massive evidence of conspiracy in the assassination of President Kennedy. Has the puzzle of Lee Harvey Oswald finally been solved? Was Oswald a murderer or a patsy? The Oswald Puzzle provides new answers.

Mer om författaren

Larry Hancock brings his formal training in history and cultural anthropology to his research and writing on Cold War history and national security subjects. A graduate of the University of New Mexico, he earned his BA with honors, majoring in history, cultural anthropology and education. Following service in the United States Air Force, he pursued a career in technical education, computer/communications, and technology marketing. Larry then returned to his long-term interest in historical research. Known as a "document geek," he researched and published several collections of CIA, FBI, and military documents prior to beginning his writing efforts. His document work led to his becoming a board member of the Mary Ferrell Foundation, a major online interactive history archive. With over a dozen books in print, his works include an exploration of long term patterns in covert action and deniable warfare (Shadow Warfare and In Denial), the effectiveness of national command authority and command and control practices (Surprise Attack), and the political assassinations of the 1960s (Someone Would Have Talked, Killing King and The Awful Grace of God). His most recent book on the Kennedy assassination is Tipping Point: The conspiracy that murdered President John Kennedy. David Boylan is a former IT professional at Brown University. He has a rich background in research and analysis related to the JFK assassination. His work includes his co-authorship with Larry Hancock, on The Wheaton Lead—An Exploration, The Redbird Airport Leads, and author of the monograph A League of Their Own—A Look Inside the Christian Defense League. Boylan is a frequent presenter at the JFK Lancer conference in Dallas and a longtime researcher of the JFK assassination focusing on the documentary record.

Recensioner i media

PRAISE FOR LARRY HANCOCK“In Someone Would Have Talked once again Hancock opens doors the CIA and FBI would prefer stay closed. By probing newly released documents and bring fresh witnesses to the fore, Hancock’s tireless research conclusively proves there is still plenty that we don’t know about the perpetration and cover-up of the Kennedy Assassination.”—Dick Russell, Author of The Man Who Knew Too Much and On the Trail of the Assassins “In Creating Chaos, Hancock shows how age-old tactics have moved into new forms of cyber technology as governments on both sides have sown disinformation in order to create chaos. Creating Chaos makes startling charges but it is a mater of fact, never veers towards sensationalism.”—Kirkus Reviews “In Shadow Warfare, Hancock presents a grim yet trenchant portrait of American imperial reach- and overreach. A comprehensive, well researched and up to date analysis of US shadow warfare.”—Publishers Weekly “In The Awful Grace of God (the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.) Hancock and Wexler’s extensive research is presented in politically neutral prose, allowing them to engage a range of readers with a controversial topic.”—Booklist
