The Assassination of JFK

Minute by Minute

De: Jonathan Mayo

Narrado por: Russell Bentley

This is the story of JFK's assassination as told from the frontline: it is about the people - from the highest to the lowest - who were caught up in that four-day whirlwind in November 1963.

From Dallas nightclub reporter Tony Zoppi, who found himself carrying the president's casket; Secret Service agent Clint Hill beating his hands in despair on the trunk of the limousine as he watches Kennedy die; Howard Brennan, a construction worker on a lunch break watching a man take aim on the motorcade with a rifle; reporter Hugh Aynesworth with only an electricity bill on which to write notes for the scoop of his career; DJ John Peel a few feet from Oswald as he's questioned by the press; to Robert Kennedy sitting in the dark in the back of an empty army truck, waiting for his brother's body to arrive.

The Assassination of JFK: Minute by Minute is pure chronological narrative, giving a blow by blow account of the terrible events as they unfolded.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Reads like a pacey, page-turning, cold war political thriller." Dermot O'Leary

"Packed with vivid detail, and arranged in the minute by minute style that Jonathan Mayo has pioneered, this account of the murder of John F Kennedy gripped me from the first page to the last." Jeremy Vine

Horrible narration

I will avoid this reader in the future. It was very difficult to get through when I was unable to finish it.

Cherry picking

Reads like a defense of the Warren Commission.
Ridiculously selective minutes to defend the Oswald did it alone tripe.
