STATEMENT OF AUTHOR

This true story is presented in a very personal format. Records, chronology, details and evidence kept for over forty years have been thoroughly vetted and examined by the book’s editors, as well as through a decade of investigation by seasoned researchers of good repute. The decision to add personal details was a difficult one, but the author believed it was important for the American people to understand the character and personality of the man falsely accused of killing President John F. Kennedy. I believe that any honest person reading this narrative, which offers a day-by-day account of Oswald’s last months, will conclude that this government agent did not kill Kennedy, that he was framed, and that his actions were, in fact, courageous and heroic in his efforts to save Kennedy. But he knew too much, which was why he had to die. The author lives in exile due to death threats and is grateful to be alive.

WITH GRATITUDE TO:

My beloved parents, my dear sister, my courageous oldest son, and my affectionate youngest daughter, who faithfully stood by my side. Also: to Sydney Wilkinson and Thom Whitehead, Edward T.
