This audiobook is a riveting historical narrative of the shocking events surrounding the assassination of John F. Kennedy, and the follow-up to mega-bestselling author Bill O'Reilly's Killing Lincoln. Now the anchor of The O'Reilly Factor recounts in gripping detail the brutal murder of John Fitzgerald Kennedy and how a sequence of gunshots on a Dallas afternoon not only killed a beloved president but also sent the nation into the cataclysmic division of the Vietnam War and its culture-changing aftermath. In January 1961, as the cold war escalates, John F. Kennedy struggles to contain the growth of communism. Despite personal and political trials, Kennedy's approval ratings soar. At the same time, JFK acquires a number of formidable enemies, among them Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev, Cuban dictator Fidel Castro, and Allen Dulles, director of the CIA. Then, in the midst of a 1963 campaign trip to Texas, Kennedy is gunned down, resulting in national chaos. His wife Jackie and the nation mourn while the hunt for the perpetrators commences. The events leading up to the most notorious crime of the twentieth century are almost as shocking as the assassination itself. Gripping from beginning to end, Killing Kennedy, written with historian Martin Dugard, chronicles both the heroism and deceit of Camelot, bringing history to life in ways that will profoundly move the listener. - Container.
