"We're heading into nut country," Kennedy remarked en route to Dallas. I have the same feeling whenever I approach the obsessive conspiracy literature, which invariably ignores the mountains of evidence convicting Oswald in order to dilate on trivial inconsistencies in the Warren Report. Bugliosi provides a nice antidote here. It's a thoroughly (if morbidly) engrossing refutation of all - yes, all - the kooky assassination theories.

Has Bugliosi succeeded in his grandiose attempt to 'reclaim history' with this hypertrophic hatchet job? Probably not, but hey, Proust completely failed to 'recapture lost time' with his even longer, more grandiose project. Me, I'll take a meaty discussion of JFK's autopsy over a Combray madeleine any day.
