Resumen del Editor

The last word on the JFK assassination by the New York Times best-selling author and JFK historian!

Mark Lane tried the only US court case in which the jurors concluded that the CIA plotted the murder of President Kennedy, but there was always a missing piece: How did the CIA control cops and Secret Service agents on the ground in Dealey Plaza? How did federal authorities prevent the House Select Committee on Assassinations from discovering the truth about the complicity of the CIA?

Now, Mark Lane tells all in this explosive new book, with exclusive new interviews, sworn testimony, and meticulous new research (including interviews with Oliver Stone, Dallas Police deputy sheriffs, Robert K. Tanenbaum, and Abraham Bolden). Lane finds out first hand exactly what went on the day JFK was assassinated. He includes sworn statements given to the Warren Commission by a police officer who confronted a man who he thought was the assassin. The officer testified that he drew his gun and pointed it at the suspect, who showed Secret Service ID. Yet, the Secret Service later reported that there were no Secret Service agents on foot in Dealey Plaza.

The Last Word proves that the CIA, operating through a secret small group, prepared all credentials for Secret Service agents in Dallas for the two days that Kennedy was going to be there - conclusive evidence of the CIA's involvement in the assassination.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Both readers who have followed the JFK assassination for years and those new to one of the great debates of the 20th century will find much to contemplate here." ( Library Journal Xpress Review)

Bold, Direct and Controversial, As Always

What made the experience of listening to Last Word the most enjoyable?

Being a dedicated researcher of the JFK murder for decades, it is fulfilling to see one of the original authors (still alive) writing provocative and revealing substance about the crime of the last century. Lane has never been one to pull a punch and I thought the way he revealed the inter-connections between those who criticize him and the agency they work for to be bold and excellent counter-punches. Lane has been relentless in bringing to light the suspicious "coincidences" that engulf the assassination, the Warren Commission and their subsequent multiple white-washings. With so many of the most knowledgable and profound researchers now gone on to the other side of this life, it is a good thing that Lane, Josiah Thompson and a few others cling to the determined course of action in telling facts to the public. It will take people like Lane to counter-punch, once again, the new lathering of whitewash that is surely to appear in the film we are told of that has the involvement of Tom Hanks. Lane is a talented debunker and he will surely be at the forefront of critics of the Hanks production, if it sees the screen. Fortunately Leonardo DiCaprio has bought rights to a book which may well offset much of Hanks' "work." The world of truth owes a lot of gratitude to Mark Lane for this well-documented and powerfully written work.

Who was your favorite character and why?

THere were really no "characters" in this book.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The energetic debunking of Vincent Bugliosi's tripe brought tears of laughter to me. Bugliosi is far more talented at writing stuff that is enjoyable to read than he is at telling the truth impartially and accurately. Bugliosi's penchant to exaggerate and stray far afield from the truth is infuriating and should be criminal. Lane took V.B. to task in fine style. The book was worth the listen just for that, alone.

Any additional comments?

"The Last Word" along with James W. Douglass' book "JFK and the Unspeakable" (Also available unabridged on Audible) are the best books written in the last two decades on the subject of the JFK assassination because they deal with how it came to be and the results of it, rather than merely the physics of gunfire and the controversy of testimony. While there is no way to say they are 100% accurate in all cases, they open up panoramic views of evidence that was ignored or intentionally obfuscated by people, whose job it was to tell the TRUTH, the WHOLE TRUTH and NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH. Anyone who takes the time to listen to these two books can only end up thinking long and hard about the way things are today and how they had been if JFK had lived out his life and been allowed to see through his visions of a world of peace.

Fantastic information all US citizens must have

If anyone wonders why certain countries don't trust or respect the USA, there should be no question after reading Mark Lanes book - filled with documentation that backs up everything stated about unbelievable practices of our government including one particular agency that has strayed as far as one could stray from the original duties assigned upon its creation.

Thankful for Mark Lane

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Definitely based on Mark Lane's thorough explanation of an event that shook the world

What did you like best about this story?

His critique of Vincent Bugliosi's book and his revealing of Buglios's hypocrisy and ineptness.

What about Mark Boyett’s performance did you like?

Clear and believable.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I remember the day JFK was murdered and the utter sadness of everyone that I knew. Then the totally unbelievable murder of Oswald, in of all places .....the Dallas Police station. Now, after listening to Mr. Lane's book, I feel outrage at the lies our government put out there. They shouldn't wonder why people are not so patriotic anymore.

Any additional comments?

It would also be a good idea to watch the movie- "Rush to Judgement" Thank-you Mark Lane for your service to this country.

Outstanding!!!

The material, and the reader are so engrossing that I was surprised by the ending, as I completely lost myself in the narration. At the end, and after reading quite a few books on this sad subject I am firmly convinced that the CIA did it.

truth

well plotted out proof of our countrys coup.
many warren report omissions are here.
mark was a hero for another generation.

Phenomenal book

Great audio book, great narration, and an author with the balls to call out the criminals who run the most destructive government agency in world history. I'm genuinely shocked that Mr. Lane has not dropped dead of a "heart attack".

CIA

You can tell the author is an attorney. Very carefully and succinctly lays out the case. Be prepared to be nauseated with proof positive it was the CIA. They are running around unfettered to this day. Over 60 years after the assassination and no one dares call them out. Every single culprit in this book should be tried and convicted and their names linked with the assassination inside our own country, of a democratically elected president. All the way up to today engaging in illegal clandestine affairs. Mark Lane truly is the last word in who knew what, and when did they know it.

I've always questioned LBJ'S Warren Report.

The author; Mark Lane, does a very convincing job in presenting the facts just as I remember them occurring. Through the many years I have followed with great interest anytime the subject of JFK's assassination occurred. Whenever a government rep made statements, the facts they presented were squed. Not the case here. The details as stated in this book appear to be accurate. I will never forget that day and all of the witnesses who described what each had seen and experienced. This book accurately captures the detail of my recollection.

Highly researched new public records

The research done by this author will amaze you. The story was not complete until he accessed public records, siting every source. A must read. We deserve to know what our Gov is doing.

Information and Presentation are Great!

Thank you Mark Lane! This is a great presentation of the events leading up to, during, and after the assassination of JFK. Highly recommend.
