Editorial Reviews

Product Description

The doctors who tried to save President John F. Kennedy at Parkland Hospital in November of 1963 agreed--either out of respect or fear--not to publish what they had seen, heard, and felt. Then in 1990, one of the Dallas surgeons who worked on JFK in Trauma Room One, Dr. Charles Crenshaw, decided after much deliberation that the American people ought to know the truth.

"The wounds to Kennedy’s head and throat that I examined were caused by bullets that struck him from the front, not the back, as the public has been led to believe," says Crenshaw. When the first edition of this book was published in 1992, under the title JFK: Conspiracy of Silence, Crenshaw revealed what he never had to opportunity to tell the Warren Commission. In the aftermath, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) called Crenshaw’s book "a fabrication." But JAMA’s claim did not hold up in court and Crenshaw subsequently prevailed in a defamation suit against JAMA. In the process, a number of new medical disclosures and discoveries have emerged on the startling medical cover-up of the JFK assassination.

5.0 out of 5 stars a European perspective, July 14, 2003
From a European perspective there is nothing new in the fact that John F. Kennedy was murdered by several assassins and that several shots were fired from the front - at least that is what I was taught at school in the seventies, with the cautionary remark that Americans were too naive to be able to accept the truth - the truth being not only the facts of the JFK murder but the much more sinister fact that they were lied at by several successive governments, by the CIA, the FBI, and almost all their mass media. Maybe it was easier to see this truth from a continent that had been ravaged by a horrible war where unbelievable atrocities had been committed in the name of governments. Maybe it was easier because the European nations had had more than their share of "Tyrannenmord" in the past. When I grew up during the "Cold War" I actually did not see that much difference between the Soviet government and the U.S. government. They used somewhat different methods to hush up their dirty secrets but they were both effective up to a point.

Apart from the simple facts which one of the eye-witnesses at last discloses this book strikes me most by the effect it had in its first edition. What is most strange and not a little frightening is the way the American media still dictate the people what to believe and what not. Even now, 40 years after, they are still trying to hide the truth, to distort what cannot be hidden, to spread disinformation, to influence or discredit witnesses, and in this case to shed doubt on the reliability and the reputation of a distinguished surgeon. In an unprecedented act of defamation a scientific(!) journal, the "Journal of the American Medical Association" (JAMA) called Dr Crenshaw's book "a fabrication". Crenshaw sued for "slander with malice" and won in court but the damage to his reputation cannot be undone. The motto of cover-up people has always been "Audacter calumniare, semper aliquid haeret". The courageous author of this book is no exception.

5.0 out of 5 stars Eyewitness account trumps the jet theory, November 25, 2002
Gary Waltrip and the reader from Scotts Valley, CA can believe what they want. They can talk about shooting watermelons all they want. There are no watermelons in this book, no simulations, no speculations, just a description by a doctor who was among the team that examined Kennedy's wounds immediately after they happened.

As an aside, Stewart Galanor's book, "Cover-up" discusses and destroys the "jet effect." As for Posner's "Case Closed," it is a silly attempt by someone who is either naive to the extreme, or simply an errand boy doing the bidding of others. Research his background and you can come to your own conclusion on his motivations.

In closing, I will paraphrase Fletcher Prouty: "A cover story is like a balloon. It is not necessary to pierce it with dozens of needles to deflate it. Only a single needle will do." Charles Crenshaw provides a single needle with this book. The wounds in the autopsy photos are not those he saw when treating Kennedy moments after the shooting. Thus you have a conspiracy. It's that simple. The convoluted gymnastics that others go through to disprove conspiracy would be comical if the subject were not so serious.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sensational updated book by Drs. Crenshaw & Aguilar!!!!!!!!, December 5, 2001
By A Customer
The medical evidence is THE most important aspect of any homicide case,
and, as with any such case, this vital factor is THE keystone to
demonstrating a conspiracy to murder President John F. Kennedy. In this
regard, I HIGHLY recommend this newly-updated and greatly-expanded
edition of the original best-selling version of Dr. Crenshaw's
"JFK-Conspiracy of Silence." In particular, the lengthy, detailed and
exhaustive NEW chapter from Drs. Gary Aguilar and Cyril Wecht alone is
THE greatest writing ever recorded on this intense subject and worth the
price of admission alone (as well as a Pulitzer Prize)! Although some
have sought to discredit Dr. Crenshaw without a proper knowledge of the
true facts, Aguilar and co. demonstrate that a) there are numerous
Warren Commission (primary source) references to Crenshaw's
participation in saving JFK's life, b) the vast majority of his
colleagues SUPPORT Crenshaw's claims of frontal injuries to JFK (ones
that could NOT have been caused by a lone gunman), and c) the infamous
1992 JAMA articles that attacked Crenshaw have themselves been largely
discredited (the end result: Crenshaw won a hard-fought court settlement
over the damage to his reputation). If you only buy one book on the JFK
assassination, let it be this one. Highly recommended.
