Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - another true classic of that terrible November weekend in 1963
As the leading civilian expert on the Secret Service, I modestly recommend this somewhat dated and dry book, as it is another true classic (as is "Four Days"). Some nice, large graphics, as well.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Tribute, Great Pictures, Sad day though
For the price, if your a Kennedy fan, or have any interest in the day of the assassination and right after, I would get a copy of this thin, but tall 100 page book. Some of the text is very interesting personal stories I have not read before. Pictures of Truman and Ike at the funeral. If you can pick up a copy for under five, it is well worth the money. However, it doesn't go into deep details. Its a memorial book presented by the associated press.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Can't Look At These Pictures Without Being Moved
It doesn't much matter what you think of JFK, or who you think killed him, or why you think he was killed, to find yourself caught in an emotional rush looking at this book. The photographs provide insight back to a time and a place when and where something monumental happened--looking at this photo essay is, surprisingly a really moving experience. They are mostly images we know--and maybe because we do know them they have particular & universal meaning. All I can say is that I started flipping through this book and found myself drawn in -- remembering the day JFK was killed and the days that followed. His death and the events surrounding his death are like a pivot point in history-- nothing was ever exactly the same--and the EXACT point of change is somehow visible in the pictures selected for this book. An interesting experience.
