 2008 Audie Award Finalist for Achievement in Abridgement

The nation's foremost prosecutor takes on the most important murder case in American history

For over forty years the truth about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy has been obscured. Now Vincent Bugliosi, author of the biggest selling true-crime book of all time, finally releases us from a crippling distortion of American history.

Twenty years in the making, Reclaiming History resolves, beyond any reasonable doubt, every lingering question surrounding the Kennedy Assassination. Bugliosi confronts and destroys the theories that have grown up since the assassination, revealing their selective use of evidence, flawed logic, and outright deceptions. Providing a powerful and unprecedented narrative of events and a biography of the assassin, he confirms the oft-challenged findings of the Warren Commission -- Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone, shot and killed President John F. Kennedy -- and exposes every conspiracy theory as a fraud on the American public.

A narrative compendium of fact, forensic evidence, reexamination of key witnesses and common sense, Reclaiming History surpasses all other books on the subject. With his irresistible logic, command of the evidence, and startling inferences, Bugliosi draws on his legendary skills as a prosecutor to shed fresh and definitive light on this long American nightmare.©2007 Vincent Bugliosi.

This is exceptional content delivered by an exceptional narrator of rare consistency, pace and emotion. The narrative is driven by cold, hard evidence, with the first part a minute by minute breakdown of Kennedy's, Connelly's, Oswald's and many others actions and behaviours.

The second half looks at the big picture and how the Warren Commission was formulated, his it operates and what it discovered. The third part is an analysis of all the big conspiracy theories and why they're, for the most part, mistaken, wrong and in same cases, utterly fanciful (the JFK movie) and even deranged.

Masterful stuff, and a great service to the US.

it was interesting to read about all the facts that conspiracy theorists rarely mention, but it did get a little repetitive towards the second half of the book

interesting but a bit repetitive

I have to write fifteen words to describe this?!There's only one word to describe it and that is 'genius'. No. No... I'm a fool. Here's another one -'perfect'.

Genius...
