Summary
From the acclaimed author of JFK and Vietnam comes a book that uncovers the government's role in the Kennedy assassination more clearly than any previous inquiry. What was the extent of the CIA's involvement with Lee Harvey Oswald? Why was Oswald's file tampered with before the assassination of John F. Kennedy? And why did significant documents from that file mysteriously disappear? Oswald and the CIA answers these questions, not with theories, but with information from the primary sources themselves - ex-agents, officials, and secret records. To look at the Oswald file is to look at the most sensitive CIA operation of the Cold War. The story is as alarming as it is tragic; the lies and manipulations it reveals led directly to Kennedy's murder. Oswald and the CIA is a gripping journey to the darkest corners of the CIA.
Editor reviews
Tom Weiner delivers a commanding performance of retired army officer and professor John Newman’s nonfiction audiobook Oswald and the CIA, a meticulous examination into the government’s role in President John F. Kennedy’s assassination. His powerful voice gives weight to the allegations that the CIA tampered with Lee Harvey Oswald’s file - removing key documents - prior to the killing. Newman cites primary sources such as ex-agents and secret records to back up his claims, and takes listeners into the clandestine inner workings of the CIA.

Worthy but tedious
The author should be commended for presenting facts without embellishments. He doesn’t try to make the story ‘sexy’. The result is a book that is interesting without being memorable. If you if have a casual interest in Oswald and his possible involvement in the assassination of JFK, this is not the book for you. For those who accept that the book won’t reveal a smoking gun, but still want to know more, it’s worth a go. There are lots of references to files with very long ID numbers. It’s hard work keeping up, but probably worth the effort.
I see that there have been some criticism of the narration; I thought it was pretty good.

Objective analysis of the JFK assassination
I've never seen the JFK assassination looked at in this way. Sticking so close to the documentary evidence is an excellent way to look at the JFK assassination. Many authors seem to have a certain axe to grind or their own pet subjects or people. This book allows you to learn lots of factual evidence and analyse it in an impartial way. I recommend this for anyone wanting to learn more about the assassination.

Poor
No news, no conclusion, poor voice over, not much excitement, better wait for new release on the subject.
