Description of Pictures: Truth about the JFK Assasination
Presidential historian James L. Swanson is the Edgar Award-winning author of the New York Times bestsellers "Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln’s Killer," and its sequel "Bloody Crimes: The Funeral of Abraham Lincoln and the Chase for Jefferson Davis." His other works include the young adult bestseller "Chasing Lincoln’s Killer." He has two new books out this fall: "End of Days: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy" (William Morrow) and, for young adults, "The President Has Been Shot! The Assassination of John F. Kennedy" (Scholastic). He has held a number of government and think-tank posts in Washington, D.C., including at the U.S. Department of Justice.
Howard Willens is an attorney, author and historian who has practiced law in both the public and private sectors in Washington D.C., and also was a member of the Warren Commission. His new book, “History Will Prove Us Right: Inside the Warren Commission Investigation into the Assassination of John F. Kennedy” (Overlook Press), is the true story of what really happened during the Warren Commission’s investigation of the assassination and is the only book written about the commission by someone who was part of the management team that supervised the largest criminal investigation ever conducted in the United States. After military service, Howard entered private practice, but soon thereafter went into public service. He served as deputy assistant attorney general in the Criminal Division of the U.S. Department of Justice, assistant counsel to the President’s Commission on the Assassination of President Kennedy, and executive director of the President’s Commission on Crime in the District of Columbia. He received his undergraduate degree in political science from the University of Michigan in 1953 and his law degree from Yale Law School in 1956.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
Help? The Medium (Email) links are for screen viewing and emailing. You'll want bigger sizes for printing. [Click here for additional help]
Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.)
I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
Featured Folk: Some of the people here can also be seen on other pages on this site.
Connection Not Secure messages? Those warnings you get from your browser about this site not having secure connections worry some people.

But this site doesn't collect any personal information so SSL is not necessary. Life's good!
