5.0 out of 5 stars
Alphabetical list of all JFK deaths, December 28, 2002
This review is from: JFK : The Dead Witnesses (Paperback)
This book has a very limited scope: It lists and describes any and all deaths the author can relate to JFK. Some are obviously murders, others are probably innocent coincidences. But as you turn page after page of "heart attacks" and death by "suicide" you suddenly realize that the information in this book alone is enough to prove a conspiracy. I'm not a statistician, but the odds of that many of the participants being murdered have to be enourmous (I think I remember reading billions to one or more). The one complaint I have is that some people have pages devoted to their backgrounds, while others only tell the location and vague details of the death in a few sentences so it's a little unbalanced, but then again there is a lack of data on some people. Also it probably needs to be updated... I give it 5 stars for the EXCELLENT use as a reference tool. Not much new info here for me but I can look up any character's bio and usually find out what his role in the assassination was.

Deaths linked to investigations, December 9, 2003
This review is from: JFK : The Dead Witnesses (Paperback)
This is one of the best books on the JFK assassination.The book also includes a chart, looking like a stock market one, in which "peaks" of deaths occur at times leading up to official investigations, that is, when witnesses are called up to officially testify before the Warren Commission in '64, in the Garrison trial of '68, for the House Committee in '78 and so forth. Basic info is garnered from official death certificates. My personal favorite: karate chop to the neck, not a common way to die. If the case on Oswald was open and shut, then why would anyone go to all this trouble to make sure so many never testified? Best of all, the book sticks to facts, not conjecture. With this book, it's a no-brainer to connect the dots.

A very interesting read....., January 24, 2010
This review is from: JFK : The Dead Witnesses (Paperback)
I have been reading and collecting assassination books for as long as I can remember and this is a must have for any real JFK historian, some entries could be a little more in depth and others a little less but for the most part this book will let you know what we all need to know about those involved.
By the way the author (Roger Craig) has several other books that are also must reads for assassination-ites, don't miss "Kill Zone".
