Offering a wealth of evidence, including rare photos, documents, and interviews, Marrs, a veteran Texas journalist, reveals the telltale signs of the conspiracy: early government manipulation of the famous Zapruder film, falsification of evidence, the intimidation of witnesses after the assassination, the theft of Oswald's identity during the countdown to the tragedy, and much more.

Download or read book Devil Creek Crossfire written by William W. Johnstone and published by Pinnacle Books. This book was released on 2013-06-06 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There’s no rest for the blood brothers in a town at war with itself. Hard-charging Western adventure from the bestselling author of Gunsmoke and Gold. Young Matt Bodine and Sam Two Wolves became blood brothers on the day the rancher’s son saved the warrior’s life, forging a bond no one could ever break. As years passed, a legend grew of the Cheyenne and the white man who rode together—and who could jerk killing iron with the best of them . . . Devil Creek Crossfire When the brothers head into the small cowtown of Crossville, close by Devil Creek, all they want is to stock up on supplies and rest their weary horses. Instead, they find themselves in the middle of a bloody range war that’s literally split the town down the middle. The warring factions have set up camp on either side of Main Street, and the newcomers ride in on a deserted strip of no man’s land where anything—and nothing good—is liable to happen. The feud seems ridiculous: it isn’t over land or water or cattle rustling, but something much darker . . . and deadlier. Bodine and Two Wolves figure the best course would be to leave—that is, until both sides order them out. Big mistake. Because the blood brothers don’t take orders from anyone . . . Praise for the novels of William W. Johnstone “[A] rousing, two-fisted saga of the growing American frontier.”—Publishers Weekly on Eyes of Eagles “There’s plenty of gunplay and fast-paced action.”—Curled Up with a Good Book on Dead Before Sundown

Book excerpt: FAST BOATS, STRONG LIQUOR AND AL CAPONE. July 19, 1919 rocked the City of Washington. Kluckers, supremacists and race-baiters urged on by the white-controlled media had attacked the Black enclave of LeDroit Park. The Custer brothers, Boston (Bos), Thomas and Nevin, had just returned from Northern France fighting as American Stormtroopers alongside the French. They were not about to let their home be destroyed. They fought with restraint and resolve. Unbeknownst to them, German Stormtroopers were among the attackers. The Germans had attacked the White House and kidnapped the President. The Custers and Lee Ann Custer defeated the Germans and rescued the President. With the advent of Prohibition, they were now implementing their plan of bolstering the Black business community by "donating" alcohol to the Black churches for distribution and profits. Their modes of transport were Liberator boats powered by Packard engines. The Liberators had been built for use on the waterways of Northern France in World War I. Unused for that purpose, the Custers were now putting them to good use for liquor distribution on the East Coast. A little known gangster had different plans for the Custers.

Book excerpt: “A superb book—an American equivalent to John Keegan’s The Face of Battle. I sincerely believe that Grunts is destined to be a classic.”—Dave Grossman, Author of On Killing and On Combat From the acclaimed author of The Dead and Those About to Die comes a sweeping narrative of six decades of combat, and an eye-opening account of the evolution of the American infantry. From the beaches of Normandy and the South Pacific Islands to the deserts of the Middle East, the American soldier has been the most indispensable—and most overlooked—factor in wartime victory. In Grunts, renowned historian John C. McManus examines ten critical battles—from Hitler’s massive assault on U.S. soldiers at the Battle of the Bulge to counterinsurgency combat in Iraq—where the skills and courage of American troops proved the crucial difference between victory and defeat. Based on years of research and interviews with veterans, this powerful history reveals the ugly face of war in a way few books have, and demonstrates the fundamental, and too often forgotten, importance of the human element in serving and protecting the nation.
