A Note for the Granddaughters
From the first time I saw it in a used book bookstore, I have been tempted to buy it. I finally bought it yesterday: Vincent Bugliosi's Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy, c. 2007. $20. Condition: new. 1,612 pages; about 3.5 inches thick; text: 1,510 pages. In addition, includes a CD of "endnotes and source notes." 1,510 pages: that's three 500-page volumes, or five 300-page books.
I started reading it last night. Wow, it is incredible. I may not finish it in my lifetime. Besides being so long, it reads so well, I will naturally read much more slowly just to enjoy it.
An excerpt:
LBJ was so opposed to the idea [of a federal investigation of the assassination] that he called FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover on the morning of November 25, asking Hoover to use "any influence you got with the [Washington] Post" to discourage it from pushing the appointment of a presidential commission in its editorials. Hoover responded, "I don't have much influence with the Post because I frankly don't read it it. I view it like the Daily Worker [a Communist publication]."It's gonna be a fun read.
Random notes until I move this note over to my literature blog.
The introduction, 36 pages long, is worth the price of the book, alone.
In the introduction, p. xxvii: " ... if you push something at people long enough, eventually they're going to start buying it, particularly when they haven't been exposed to any contrary view."
In the introduction, page xxxi: "Your conduct speaks so loudly I can't hear a word that you're saying."
On the length of the book, page xliv: "If this book (including endnotes) had been printed in an average-size font and with pages of normal length and width ... thirteen volumes." Yup, a lot of wonderful reading ahead for me.
Following the introduction, the "first chapter," but not so numbered: "Four days in November." 316 pages long. This "chapter" is a book in itself and reads like a novel.
