4.0 out of 5 stars NEWSPAPER WRITER STEVE PEREZ COAUTHORED BOOK, January 15, 2000

Bruce Adamson (Santa Cruz, CA,) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 1,000 Points of Light: The Public Remains in the Dark (Oswald's Closest Friend: The George De Mohrenschildt Story, Volume 1) (Paperback)

In response to negative review, Steve Perez worked at the Santa Cruz Sentinel for about 10 years. Perez wrote on the homicides in Santa Cruz County. The Sentinel is owned by a division of Dow Jones Inc, and one of the largest stockholder is Mary Bancroft's daughter under the Jane Bancroft trust. Mary Bancroft was a CIA agent and she was the lover of CIA Director, Warren Commissioner Allen Dulles and CIA assest Henry Luce. If you had read first half of the book and gave up you would have read Perez's work. There may be a couple of type'os possibly because when using Quark Express I had to take manuscript to Kinko's and another high grade printer. When I load program it reformatted the text for the entire volume. I went through to clean them up. Have had few complaints since 1996. Many in the JFK assassination community have praised the volume for it's damning evidence against on George de Mohrenschildt's ties to Prescott and George Bush Sr. Bruce Campbell Adamson

1.0 out of 5 stars Difficult to follow, January 5, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: 1,000 Points of Light: The Public Remains in the Dark (Oswald's Closest Friend: The George De Mohrenschildt Story, Volume 1) (Paperback)

I found this book VERY difficult to follow. It contained many typographical errors, misspellings, and inappropriate word choices and phraseology. The content was poorly organized. I had expected a cogent articulation of the situation, the facts, conclusions, and recommendations for further reseach or review. This book contained none of these. I struggled through at least one-half of the book and then gave up. I scanned the rest of the book and decided it was not worth my time. If I could return it for a refund I would do so. Having said all of this, the readers of this review need to know I am not a casual reader of books about the topic. Over the years I have read over 20 to 25 books about the assassination of JFK. I was hoping to learn something more, new, or different. I was disappointed because the author probably had something very worthwhile to say but his message was lost in his very poor presentation. My recommendation would be for him to give whatever information he collected to someone else to write.

5.0 out of 5 stars A for effort, and five stars for research!, March 21, 2002

This review is from: 1,000 Points of Light: The Public Remains in the Dark (Oswald's Closest Friend: The George De Mohrenschildt Story, Volume 1) (Paperback)

Although this book could be a bit of a headache for anyone who's grown accustomed to an easy pulp-fiction read, it is nevertheless impeccably researched. The material presented, everything from court documents to official correspondence to casual correspondence, presents a startling factual picture of "the ties that bind", and manages to avoid the Usenet-style conspiratorial bent that shows up in most other books documenting the strange Dulles-Kennedy-Bush triangle. American history at its strangest!
Five stars for tracking down and formatting the immense volume of material in this book, and five stars for having the couage to print it. A bargain at any price- in fact I'll trade my copy for a nice Texas gusher, if anyone's interested...
