Via scientific analyses and numerous illustrations, a ballistics expert who testified during the 1976-78 House review of the 1963 assassination of President Kennedy counters conspiracy theories about the forensic aspects of the case. Agreeing with the Warren Commission's conclusion, Sturdivan argues that there are more misinterpretations and myths than factual loose ends in this case.

It dispels the myths and falsehoods that have either grown up or been generated about the weapon, and the wounds. Anyone interested in the Kennedy assassination must have a copy of this book."-Dr. Vincent DiMaio, Nationally recognized JFK expert and Medical Examiner of Bexar County, Texas"A breakthrough work¼the written record on this subject is begging for more authoritative work like this.
