Crossfire raises profound and deeply troubling questions. <br>-- Cleveland Plain Dealer <br><br> The big daddy of the conspiracy books on the JFK assassination, and one that can't be taken lightly. A sheer tour de force that may be the final word until 2039--when government files on the case can be unlocked. <br>-- Kirkus Reviews <br><br> The huge mass of evidence Marrs presents to support his theory is irresistibly intriguing. <br>-- Booklist <br><br> Dallas journalist Marrs brings together, under one cover, diverse theories and facts...He points to the inconsistencies and unexplained elements embodied in the official version as to what transpired before, during, and after the President's death. <br>-- Library Journal <br><br> For its comprehensiveness alone, this would be the one book for anyone seeking a really thorough examination of the assassination....
