Oswald Puzzle
Sole assassin of President Kennedy, or the "fall guy" for a conspiracy? Or something else?

Among the many enigmas in the saga of the Kennedy assassination, Lee Harvey Oswald remains among the most enigmatic. The Warren Commission painted a portrait of a lone malcontent, but still could find no motive for his alleged actions. Some conspiracy books attempt to turn Oswald into a deep cover intelligence agent, always on assignment whether defecting to the Soviet Union or distributing pro-Castro pamphlets. Other authors ignore Oswald altogether.

In The Oswald Puzzle, experienced researchers Larry Hancock (Someone Would Have Talked, Tipping Point) and David Boylan square the circle. Taking the full measure of the same data the Warren Commission collected, they paint a detailed picture of Oswald, a man that may surprise you. And then, using their expertise and the vast declassified records now available, they tell the story of how Oswald appeared on the radar of fervent anti-Castro activists in New Orleans in 1963, and how he was then turned into their pawn.

Hancock and Boylan, in considerable detail, provide a scenario which reconciles what we know about Oswald with the massive evidence of conspiracy. Has the puzzle of Lee Harvey Oswald finally been solved? Was he truly just a patsy? The Oswald Puzzle provides the answers.

About the Author

Larry Hancock brings his formal training in history and cultural anthropology to his research and writing on Cold War history and national security subjects. A graduate of the University of New Mexico, he earned his BA with honors, majoring in history, cultural anthropology, and education. Following service in the United States Air Force, he pursued a career in technical education, computer/communications, and technology marketing.

Larry then returned to his long-term interest in historical research. Known as a "document geek," he researched and published several collections of CIA, FBI, and military documents prior to beginning his writing efforts. His document work led to his becoming a board member of the Mary Ferrell Foundation, a major online interactive history archive. With a dozen books in print, his works include an exploration of long-term patterns in covert action and deniable warfare (Shadow Warfare and In Denial), the effectiveness of national command authority and command and control practices (Surprise Attack), and the political assassinations of the 1960’s (Someone Would Have Talked, Killing King and The Awful Grace of God) His most recent book is Tipping Point: The Conspiracy That Murdered President John Kennedy.
