Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. Signed by famed literary lion (and two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize) Norman Mailer on title page in black fountain ink. "MARVELOUS . . . BREATHTAKING." --The New York Times Book Review "MAILER SHINES . . . Explaining Kennedy's assassination through the flaws in Oswald's character has been attempted before, notably by Gerald Posner in Case Closed and Don Delillo in Libra. But neither handled Oswald with the kind of dexterity and literary imagination that Mailer here supplies in great force. . . . Oswald's Tale weaves a story not only about Oswald or Kennedy's death but about the culture surrounding the assassination, one that remains replete with miscomprehensions, unraveled threads and lack of resolution: All of which makes Oswald's Tale more true-to-life than any fact-driven treatise could hope to be. . . . Vintage Mailer." --The Philadelphia Inquirer "FASCINATING . . . A MASTER STORYTELLER . . . Mailer gives us our clearest, deepest view of Oswald yet. . . . Inside three pages you are utterly absorbed." --Detroit Free Press "MAILER AT HIS BEST . . . LIVELY AND CONVINCING . . . EXTREMELY LUCID . . . Mailer is fierce, courageous, and reckless and nearly everything he writes has sections of headlong brilliance. . . . [He] has found a way to make the dry bones of KGB tapes and his own interviews stand up and perform. . . . From the American master conjurer of dark and swirling purpose, a moving reflection." --Robert Stone Mint, new, unread, first edition , first printing, in new, mylar-protected dust cover.Very scarce signed title, especially in this condition. *Packed carefully and shipped in a box to insure arrival in pristine condition. {Not remainder-marked or price-clipped} L166.

Fletcher Prouty 'JFK'. A superb set of some of the best theories concerning one of the biggest moments of the Twentieth Century. Lyndon B. Johnson appointed House Minority Leader Gerald R. Ford to a seven-member "President's Commission on the Assassination of President Kennedy." The commission was chaired by Chief Justice Earl Warren and included two Senators, two Congressmen, the former director of the Central Intelligence Agency, and the former director of the World Bank. Ford was assigned responsibility for preparing a biography of Lee Harvey Oswald (1939-1963), whose murder at the hands of Jack Ruby two days after he killed Kennedy left many unanswered questions. The Warren Commission interviewed more than five hundred witnesses and submitted its report to President Johnson on September 24, 1964. It concluded that Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone, assassinated President Kennedy. The Commission published its 889-page report in November 1964 (the second book in this collection being this), along with twenty-six volumes of supporting documents. The evidence and conclusions of the Warren Commission have been the subject of intensive review and examination, both fact-based and otherwise. Conspiracy theories abound, including accusations that Ford intentionally altered a part of the final report to support the "Single Bullet Theory," the Commission's conclusion that a single bullet fired by Oswald penetrated both President John F. Kennedy's neck and Texas Governor John Connally's torso and wrist before lodging in Connally's thigh. The conspiracy community seized upon this change as evidence that the Commission covered up the evidence of two bullets and two assassins. Three subsequent U.S. government investigations in the 1960s and 1970s agreed with the Warren Commission's conclusion that two shots fired by Oswald struck President Kennedy from the rear, and one of those shots also struck Connally. A subsequent investigation suggested that another unknown assassin fired at the President but missed; this conclusion is disputed. The 1991 Motion picture 'JFK', directed by Oliver Stone explored the last theory. Ford later remarked, "No. 1, Lee Harvey Oswald was the assassin. And two, the commission found no evidence of a conspiracy, foreign or domestic. And in my judgment, there has been no new evidence that would undercut those two conclusions, Oliver Stone notwithstanding.". …
