1.0 out of 5 stars Faction, June 5, 2002
This review is from: Broken Silence (Paperback)
This book has the wrong title - it should be "The bit I learned about JFK's assassination while chasing bad men, riding horses and eating chicken fried steak". It is faction of the worst sort - full of homely anecdotes and purportedly accurate conversations but hardly a checkable fact or date in the book. The reason given briefly in an epilogue is that the author's notes were all destroyed in a disastrous fire (of which there is no mention in the body of the book). This should not however have rendered him unable to give verifiable dates. Surely he remembers the date of the death of his best friend and mentor - "his rock of stability"? Descriptions of events and people are homely to the extent that they sound as if they come from a Country and Western collection. Men are men, women are pretty and virtuous and animals are trusty companions. Even Jack Ruby: murderer, and Mafia connected small time hood (and corrupter of women) likes small dogs and nearly starts a fight to protect one. You can almost hear the steel guitar soundtrack. Despite the lack of timelines one anachronism is notable: the linking of JFK & Camelot in his lifetime which never happened.

Not for the serious reader of the Kennedy period - file under Westerns.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb, March 11, 2000
This review is from: Broken Silence (Paperback)
I very much enjoyed reading Broken Silence. Tex and Don Lasseter have compiled a series of very interesting evidence to conclude that Lee Oswald couldn't have commited the murder of JFK. Tex admits having tought Lee Oswald and Jack Ruby how to use guns, and explains the reasons why these two men weren't responsible for the JFK assassination.

So many people took what they knew to their grave (including Tex) about the case, that the question as to who really did it is still a mystery to this day. The book is a very extensive & accurate testimony from a reliable witness of the events.

It is a captivating book, very well written and researched.

Absolutely ridiculous. Should be listed under fantasy or fiction.
