About this item
ABOUT THE BOOK In the early 1960s America became involved in a brutal, devastating war in Southeast Asia. The war polarized much of the nation and threatened to destabilize America's influence throughout the globe. The world was introduced to an entirely new kind of sports icon. He was an outspoken, confident young man who vigorously voiced his opinion about the Viet Nam War and racial inequality in America. In 1963 President John Fitzgerald Kennedy was brutally gunned down in Dallas, Texas. Two days later his alleged assassin was murdered on live television in front of a shocked nation. Later that same year the Warren Commission Report would be released to the public. Critics blasted the report for its alleged inaccuracies and narrowness of scope. The civil rights movement grew increasingly more powerful in the 1960s.
About the Author
I enjoy writing what I enjoy reading, everything from literary/mainstream to crime/mystery and a bit of fantasy thrown in. My favourite authors include Sciascia, Simenon, Sjowall & Wahloo and Mankell. My favourie non-fiction writer (and presenter) is Jonathan Meades. I love cats and am gluten-intolerant.
