I found this at a used bookstore. Was happy not to have my money go to the author. His arguments, like all the conspiracy theorists, are based on innuendo or explainable "discrepancies" in the evidence, which is presented in a very selective manner. HEL ignores the truly compelling evidence that shows that three shots and three shots only were fired at JFK's car. He counts up to 6 shots. Where are the bullets? The shells? The shooters? Several witnesses saw a rifleman in the Book Depository window. No one reported seeing any other shooters, even though potential witnesses were everywhere. Plus - 88% of the 178 witnesses said they were certain they heard three shots. HEL doesn't bother to mention this

It appears that HEL is shooting from the hip in his final book. The summation of facts in the first half of the book is compelling and somewhat satisfying, but from here comes the kind of stuff that the Gerald Posners of the world use to create the impression that researchers are paranoid and inaccurate. How can someone with a clear concsience say that all the people who shot photos and film in the Plaza were placed there by the conspirators? That researchers like Weisberg are on a disinformation campaign? There's no disagreement that the Groden questions raise doubts as to his credibility; the others sound a lot like elevator excuses. I read this book at the library, and a friend of mine moved recently and left a copy of this book for anyone to take with them.
No one took it.
After a thorough examination, I can see why.

I bought this book and was excited about being able to take it right home and play along to the Beatles recordings on my guitar. I opened up to "I Saw Her Standing There" and put on my Please Please Me CD and to my surprise and dismay the book was in a different musical key than the CD, way off! I'm assuming they did that to make the songs easier to play on piano, but it wasn't what I wanted. Disappointed I took the book back and then ordered The Complete Beatles Scores from Amazon. I've been much happier with that book.

I read a copy of this from my local library and asked that they remove it. This "book" employs yellow journalism to the hilt and finds nothing good nor objective to say on every event on the Beatles. Sources are lacking and conversations fabricated. Truly horrible.
