Seven Days in November 1963: The Kennedy Assassination

The John F. Kennedy assassination has been described as the ultimate Cold War crime. And it is no wonder that more than eighty percent of the American public believe his death was the result of a complicated, sinister conspiracy.

However, Seven Days in November 1963 is not a conspiracy book. It is based on historical facts and offers a fresh, in-depth interpretation of what really happened during seven crucial days in late November of 1963. Lee Harvey Oswald, President John F. Kennedy's cold-blooded assassin, and Jack Ruby, the man who shot and killed Oswald two days later, both had their own personal reasons for committing their crimes. In Seven Days in November 1963, author Edward J. Gibbons shows how blinding passion-mixed with misinformation and disinformation-led to the assassination and murder.

Told from three perspectives-President Kennedy's, Oswald's, and Ruby's-Seven Days in November 1963 details each man's actions during those seven days and provides crucial historical background information to better understand the tensions of the Cold War and the attitudes and hatreds that led to each man's tragic death.
