A truly international and honest account of an event that shook the world, I would highly recommend this book to anyone. We are told how DJ John Peel, posing as a reporter from the Liverpool Echo, found himself a few feet from Oswald as the press quizzed him.

One thing clear from this and from the films and documentaries I have seen Jackie Kennedy was one hell of a woman! Presented by Jeremy Vine, Dermot O'Leary and Louise Minchin, this live programme will have dramatised eye-witness accounts and expert analysis together with musicians and leading artists performing a soundtrack that combines the music of 1963 and songs inspired by the assassination.

We build and maintain all our own systems, but we don’t charge for access, sell user information, or run ads. A great book that does exactly what the title suggests: gives a minute by minute account of the days before, during and after the assassination. No conspiracy theories here; this is, as the title tells us, a minute-by-minute account of what happened on that fateful day, and the three following days, when President Kennedy was killed in Dallas.I think partly could be that I had such little knowledge of the people involved in Titanic and was fairly familiar with JFK. And Marina receives hundreds of letters , none hostile, many offering help from people who are 'touched by the sad plight of the young widow and her children'. The pictures come thick and fast as the tragedy unfolds and some of the images painted are painfully powerful.
