5.0 out of 5 stars Ruddy's book brings out the facts
Christopher Ruddy has written a well-documented account of a very disturbing incident. You will no doubt be amazed at some of the facts that he mentions.

For instance, Foster's eyeglasses were found about 20 feet from his body. Sounds logical: he must have thrown them before the suicide. But actually, the glasses had gunpowder residue on them.

It was also...

3.0 out of 5 stars Looking at Washington corruption through a keyhole
On July 20, 1993, Deputy White House Counsel Vincent W. Foster, Jr. was found dead in Fort Marcy Park, Virginia. On January 27, 1994, Christopher Ruddy became the first American journalist to write anything about the death that was both based upon actual interviews of witnesses at the park and called into question the official suicide ruling. With this book he reached...

5.0 out of 5 stars Ruddy's book brings out the facts, November 30, 1997
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
Christopher Ruddy has written a well-documented account of a very disturbing incident. You will no doubt be amazed at some of the facts that he mentions.

For instance, Foster's eyeglasses were found about 20 feet from his body. Sounds logical: he must have thrown them before the suicide. But actually, the glasses had gunpowder residue on them.

It was also claimed that Foster walked through Fort Marcy Park, which consists of a dirt path. Of course, no dirt or grass stains were found on Foster's shoes.

The Park Police searched Foster at the scene and found no keys on him. But his 1989 Honda was parked there. Later, at the morgue, not one but TWO sets of keys were found on Foster. A nurse there said that Messrs. Livingstone and Kennedy arrived before the Police to identify the body.

Or the gun. When Foster's wife was shown the gun, she said she didn't recognize it.

I could go on and on. Read this book and find out the truth. It's an excellent piece of work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Disgusted, May 10, 2001
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
There is a reason why this book is so hard to find...there are people who dont want this information out there. I was glued to this book until I was finished. I always felt as if the story that the news media and the government gave us was acceptable until I read this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars I not a Republican, but I still believe Ruddy, September 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
Yes, it is true, Ruddy is "associated" with Right Wing "elements," and this has brought on the ire of The Democratic Party, and especially that funny-talkin' bald headed guy from Louisiana. But even if only 10% of the dozens of discrepencies detailed by Ruddy are true, the American public should clamor for a full-scale investigation. Like the "Zodiac" killings in California, there are too many things that 'just don't add up.'

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent analysis of another government cover-up, October 16, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
I found this book absolutely fascinating. The author is to be congratulated for his evidence-gathering and hard work. By writing this book Ruddy angered not only the usual sinister suspects in the Clinton administration, but also the small-minded neo-conservative clique at the National Review, Weekly Standard, and The American Spectator, who were just jealous that they didn't delve deeper into Foster's death from the start. Every day we are discovering the truth about US government complicity in the Waco massacre and One World Government, so it is only a matter of time before a Clinton crony comes forward with more irrefutable evidence of the Clinton regime's guilt in the Foster matter. Turns out the so-called "vast right-wing conspiracy" has been 100% correct all along! This book is highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exhaustive for it's time, yet not up to date, February 9, 1999
By 
Dan Crawford (Greenville, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
The book was exhaustive at the time of it's writing, but new examinations of the evidence have added new revelations to the case. This book will open the eyes of anyone who wants their eyes opened. I lays out all the evidence that (1) The Clinton white house manipulated the crime scene, and (2) obstructed the investigation. Where did all those crime scene photos go? Why did Nussbaum, Thomases, and Williams enter Vince Foster's office 18 times the eve after his death? Ruddy answers these and other questions with much detail. My only criticism of the book is that it seems to have been written hastily and is very disorganized.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book!, August 19, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
A fascinating account of yet another bungled White House cover-up. The author is to be commended not only for writing a compelling book but also for his excellent research skills. It is obvious from reading some of the negative reader reviews that many people write reviews without reading anything but the flyleaf. Books like these only make me more grateful to be a Canadian!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dead Men can't speak!, August 24, 2000
By 
Aviator (New Lenox, IL. United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
Ruddy brings us into the hellish world of Government cover up's at any cost. The evidence is compelling,the motive logical, and the cover up all too real! The screw up by the Capital police, blood that defies gravity (sort of like the magic bullet theory in Kennedy's assasination), and where did all the blood go! Read the book to find out how your Government got away with Murder.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow, Really Well Done, July 28, 1999
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
A friend lent me this book a few years ago, and it was startling to see how much the evidence differed from the official conclusion. I know: This is the stuff of which conspiracy theories are made. But I just don't buy suicide. I'm sorry. But I also want to believe that Lee Harvey Oswald didn't act alone.

In any event, this is a well-written work.

5.0 out of 5 stars An OUTSTANDING read, I highly recommend it., December 26, 1998
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
I can add little more to what those before me have said, except that I would recommend this to anyone who has any question in their minds about how honest this present regime is in their dealings with the public. By reading this book I understand they can even screw up a coverup, even better than Dick Nixon, except he didn't have anybody killed. I wonder how long it will be before those of us who order books like this over the internet are kept track of on the 'Big Computer?' Buy it, read it and pass it along.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ruddy discloses the facts; you draw the conclusions, November 21, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: The Strange Death of Vincent Foster (Hardcover)
Whether your predilection is liberal or conservative, you must agree that the death of Vincent Foster was most unusual. Christopher Ruddy focuses on these unusual circumstances in a compelling narrative that reveals the possibility of obstruction of justice both within and outside the White House. I read the book cover to cover without putting it down. The thing I liked most about Ruddy's treatment was the fact that he did not confuse the reader by inserting his own beliefs into the book. He states the facts, but doesn't draw the obvious conclusions. He allows the reader to draw his or her own conclusions. If you like a good murder mystery; if you like a good conspiracy drama; if you like to believe that someone still cares about the Constitution, you'll like this book.
