This superior history of Lee Harvey Oswald, his intelligence connections and the man who led another totally separate existence as his double is a stunning expose, and a fantastic example of recent historical research. This book is one of the key books in assassination studies of the murder of JFK. The recent revelations of Marilyn Monroe and the Kennedy's are further evidence that this case is still hot, though many of the players have been killed or driven their cars into trees while having heart attacks. The murder of JFK is a turning point in American history, and a total scandal that it is not heavily investigated to a resolution by the authorities in the USA. There are hearty and talented investigators out there who continue to study this important case. Armstrong is one of the best. If you are a serious student of the JFK assassination this book must have a prominent place on your book shelf. There will be a day, and hopefully soon, when the true criminals are named and prosecuted (if they are still alive). There heroes in this story must eventually be named and acknowledged and the villains exposed. The devolution of American Democracy that culminated in the Watergate case began in Dallas. Some investigators maintain that the shots fired in Dealy Plaza still echo today. Armstrong has done a great service for the study of this case and for the country itself. You will need a CDROM reader in your computer to view the photos with this book as they are all on a CD that comes with it, rather than included in the text. This is a slightly challenging approach to visuals in a book, but the photos are excellent quality. The book reads like a novel as the case is so bizarre, yet so important. LHO was clearly railroaded, he was a patsy just as he claimed. And if he hadn't been murdered by Ruby who can say how a trial would have gone. Just as a little hint for further research... if you read the Nixon transcripts or listen to the tapes that he made during his presidency whenever he mentions "the bay of pigs thing" this is his code phrase for the JFK assassination. History is about telling the truth, no matter how bizarre or how disturbing. The story in Harvey and Lee is certainly bizarre, but is so well documented and so well told, it is difficult to argue against. Gerald Posner did not "close" the Kennedy case, it is still open. Fantastic research like Armstrong's will help the country get close to a solution and a final healing from the trauma that was the shattering of camelot in 1963.Read full review

I was not a believer in this theory until seeing this on YouTube. John Armstrong does serious research and documents his findings to make this a must have for Assassination researchers.
