High Treason presents entirely new evidence in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. It is the most comprehensive synthesis of the evidence ever presented. High Treason is the definitive work in this case, and represents the accepted opinion of the majority of legitimate assassination researchers. Based on 23 years of research, High Treason leads the reader into an incredible world of corruption, intrigue, and murder. A world in which assassination and cover-ups are seen as legitimate tools for achieving political goals. This book is not about El Salvador or the Philippines, but about the United States of America. Impossible!? Read on and judge for yourself. Did you know that: Richard Nixon and J. Edgar Hoover both were in Dallas the day before President Kennedy's murder (Nixon left just before the assassination). That the FBI had advance information from informants that outlined in precise detail how President Kennedy would be murdered -- and that they did nothing with this information? That Lee Harvey Oswald was a government contract agent who was set up in advance as the "Fall Guy" for the murder? That the CIA launched a massive cover-up following the assassination to bury all ties between the Agency and Lee Harvey Oswald? Were you aware of the many connections between Watergate and the assassination of President Kennedy, and that many of the same people turned up in both investigations? That scores of pieces of vital evidence disappeared from the National Archives? That the "official" photographs of the Kennedy autopsy are forged and have been denounced by the doctors who treated the President in Dallas, as well as by the autopsists themselves? That the Warren Commission deliberately ignored the testimony of more than 50 witnesses that one of the assassins was on the Grassy Knoll? That men with Secret Service identification prevented Dallas police from arresting suspects on the Grassy Knoll? That the man who killed the alleged assassin in a police station -- Jack Ruby -- had lifelong ties to the Mafia, the Teamsters, and the intelligence community? That witnesses stated Ruby and Oswald knew each other? That Kennedy's Secret Service guards were out drinking most of the night before the shooting at a club owned by a friend of Jack Ruby? That the Secret Service got money for Marina Oswald after the assassination and coached her in her testimony? The list goes on and on. Authors Livingstone and Groden have put together pieces of the Kennedy assassination mystery that will shock and perhaps even terrify most Americans. They provide chilling evidence of a well organized conspiracy to kill the President, a conspiracy supported by influential government and business figures, orchestrated by elements of the intelligence community and executed by members of the Mafia and anti-Castro Cuban assassination teams. Following the assassination, a well-planned cover-up was conducted to prevent the American people from knowing the truth. That cover-up continues to this day! Evidence was altered and destroyed, testimony suppressed, witnesses intimidated and in some cases even murdered, and investigative bodies fed false information. On November 22, 1963, the government of the United States changed hands not by means of an election, but by assassination. A group of powerful conspirators stole the sovereignty of the American people and got away with it. It was a terrible precedent which ultimately led to other political murders -- including those of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King, and the attempt to kill Governor George Wallace. Are the conspirators still alive? Do they still move freely among us and continue to influence events? Yes, say Groden and Livingstone in High Treason, and it is time the American people brought them to justice. High Treason is not for the faint-hearted nor for those who believe that this sort of thing happens only in Central America. This book was written for those who have the courage to face the terrible truth, and who believe in the sanctity of the democratic process and the rule of law. Someday, the American people must learn the truth about what happened in Dallas. It cannot be suppressed forever. Chief Justice Earl Warren said that "not in our time will the whole truth emerge." Must we wait that long? Perhaps this is the day we begin, and High Treason is a first step. - Inside cover.
