Описание: A six-month New York Times bestseller: "Not only the best Watergate book, but a very good book indeed" (The Sunday Times). As White House counsel to Richard Nixon, a young John W. Dean was one of the primary players in the Watergate scandal--and ultimately became the government's key witness in the investigations that ended the Nixon presidency. After the scandal subsided, Dean rebuilt his career, first in business and then as a bestselling author and lecturer. But while the events were still fresh in his mind, he wrote this remarkable memoir about the operations of the Nixon White House and the crisis that led to the president's resignation. Called "fascinating" by Commentary, which noted that "there can be little doubt of [Dean's] memory or his candor," Blind Ambition offers an insider's view of the deceptions and machinations that brought down an administration and changed the American people's view of politics and power. It also contains Dean's own unsparing reflections on the personal demons that drove him to participate in the sordid affair. Upon its original publication, Kirkus Reviews hailed it "the flip side of All the President's Men--a document, a minefield, and prime entertainment." Today, Dean is a respected and outspoken advocate for transparency and ethics in government, and the bestselling author of such books as The Nixon Defense, Worse Than Watergate, and Conservatives Without Conscience. Here, in Blind Ambition, he "paints a candid picture of the sickening moral bankruptcy which permeated the White House and to which he contributed. His memory of who said what and to whom is astounding" (Foreign Affairs).
Of all the JFK assassination theories proposed over the years, Through The 'Oswald' Window is the first study of the event through the eyes of the actual assassin. The author was granted rare access to the so-called 'Oswald' window.
By standing in the shoes of the real assassin in the Book Depository, in essence looking over his shoulder, what the author saw was shocking and may change what the history books say about the JFK assassination.
The 404-page book reveals why a lone assassin at the infamous sixth-floor window could not have carried out the assassination of JFK on his own. Further, it casts doubt that it was Oswald who fired from the window named after him.
This FULL COLOR 'REVISED' EDITION presents a most disturbing JFK assassination conspiracy alliance that changed history in Dallas on November 22, 1963. The alliance outlined by the author has been validated by declassified files in 2017 and 2018.
It cuts through the maze of information and misinformation out there to answer not only why was JFK assassinated, but also who assassinated JFK, which continues to haunt the Kennedy family to this day.
Supported by more than 250 images as well as a unique look at the iconic full color Zapruder film, including a fascinating analysis of the several moments of controversy that still troubles America.
Through The 'Oswald' Window brings fresh insights into America's ultimate cold case
