This is going to be a great event! Legacy of Secrecy is Waldron/Hartmann's sequel to their ground-breaking Ultimate Sacrifice: John and Robert Kennedy, the Plan for a Coup in Cuba, and the Murder of JFK. (See Gore Vidal's praise for that book in his own recent Point to Point Navigation, pp. 259-60.)
When Sacrifice came out three years ago, Lamar came to speak about it at the bookstore (which, back then, was called McNally Robinson). His talk was riveting, and this one will be, too. MCM Lamar Waldron, author (with Thom Hartmann) of Legacy of Secrecy: The Long Shadow of the JFK Assassination This new book documents the tragedies resulting from the government secrecy surrounding JFK's assassination, ranging from the assassinations of Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King to the 45-year impasse between the US and Cuba. Waldron explains why some of the secrecy surrounding JFK's assassination-and the cover-up by the Warren Commission-was intended to protect national security, while other officials, especially at the CIA and FBI, were hiding their own intelligence failures. Waldron also reveals why more than a million CIA records-and hundreds of hours of tapes from Carlos Marcello, the godfather who confessed to JFK's murder-remain secret, despite the 1992 law requiring their release. Lamar's talk will be hosted by Mark Crispin Miller Tuesday, February 3 7:00 p.m. McNally-Jackson Bookstore 52 Prince St. (b/t Lafayette and Mulberry) 212-274-1160 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Mark Crispin Miller's "News From Underground" newsgroup.
