JFK is in Texas because he 'needs to win friends in the South' as his support for civil rights has dented his popularity and there is an election just a year away.No conspiracy theories here; this is, as the title tells us, a minute-by-minute account of what happened on that fateful day, and the three following days, when President Kennedy was killed in Dallas. It captures practically everyone, if not everyone, who was caught up in the events immediately prior to, during and after the shooting. It doesn't matter if it is the president's brother, Robert, members of the Oswald family, the vice-president Lyndon Johnson or such as Tony Zoppi, a Dallas nightclub reporter who unexpectedly finds himself helping to carry the president's coffin, they are all there and all have something significant to report. This book covers four days, three murders and looks a dozens of witnesses who all played a small part in this historic event. An interesting chronological narrative of the events surrounding the assassination of JFK. After already reading a Mayo book, I feel I knew what to expect from this read. A very factual account of the events surrounding the assassination of JFK including the time each event took place. I loved Hitler's Last Day as it gave some really interesting facts and facts that maybe wasn't that widely known, however, this book seems to be very straightforward and includes nothing that hasn't already been written before. This is the story of JFK's assassination as told from the frontline: it is about the people - from the highest to the lowest - who were caught up in that four-day whirlwind in November 1963.

CONSPIRACY theorists look away now. If you’re after ­confirmation the mob, CIA, Cuban hitmen or other dark forces were behind the killing of John Fitzgerald Kennedy this is not for you. This is the story of JFK's assassination as told from the frontline: it is about the people - from the highest to the lowest - who were caught up in that four-day whirlwind in November 1963 The theories that abound surrounding JFK’s death may have conspired to lessen the horror of the event. Mayo presents the unfolding story in a style reminiscent of a Fifties true crime movie, using memoirs and statements given under oath. I did enjoy the book despite giving it a 3 star rating and it did only take a couple of sittings to complete. Right at the beginning of the book, Mayo writes that he will focus on the facts rather than any conspiracy theories surrounding the assassination. Whilst it was good that he did make that clear from the beginning and the reader knows what to expect, I cant help but want more analysis around the theories. It would have been nice to read a bit of a debate, did Oswald assassinate JFK or not?

This is not a whodunit, a search for reasons or an attempt to put the events in any political context. It deserves its place among the 40,000 or so books penned about JFK for its vivid detail, its approach to history and for simply telling it straight. On the plus side for this book, I haven't found any spelling or typo errors anywhere. Therefore there is no excuse for TSBD superintendent Roy Truly to be repeatedly referred to as Ron. Or for that matter deputy sheriff 'Buddy' Walthers' name to be given as Walters. Reporter Hugh Aynesworth took notes on the biggest story of his life on an electricity bill, scribbling with a pencil he bought from a small boy.

Oswald is the guilty lone-nut again by utilising partial testimony. "Bob Edwards and Ronald Fischer are on their lunch break, and standing on the edge of the kerb. Bob punches Ronald on the shoulder. 'Look at that guy there in that window. He looks like he's hiding from someone amongst those boxes!" Yet, a little further research shows that Fischer later said that he thought the shots came from just west of the TSBD and Fischer later told researcher Larry Harris that he did not think the man in the window was Oswald, insisting that the man in the window had light coloured hair.

Released 60 years to the day since President John Fitzgerald Kennedy took that fateful drive through Dealey Plaza in Dallas, this painstaking and impressive two-part documentary examines in detail the time leading up to and following the assassination of the 35th president of the United States.Mayo has a great eye for detail that brings history to life and creates a compelling narrative. Anyone who had a part to play in the story, however small, is here. urn:lcp:assassinationofj0000mayo:epub:b6b7af17-891f-4540-8c69-04b127424cff Foldoutcount 0 Identifier assassinationofj0000mayo Identifier-ark ark:/13960/s21s7v9nvb0 Invoice 1652 Isbn 9781780721859 On the evening of 22nd November 2013, exactly 50 years on, The Assassination of JFK: Minute by Minute will tell the story of the murder of President Kennedy, from half an hour before Lee Harvey Oswald pulls the trigger, to Lyndon B.
