About this Item

First edition. Signed by Hosty on front free endpaper, inscribed to former owner and dated in the year of publication. viii, 328 pp. Original paper-covered boards lettered in metallic red. Near Fine with bumped bottom front corner, in Fine unclipped dust jacket. The autobiography of the Dallas-based FBI Special Agent who investigated alleged JFK assassin Lee Harvey Oswald and his Soviet-born wife Marina before the assassination. Hosty received a mysterious note from Lee he recalled as being a warning to stay away from Marina (others at that FBI office recalled its contents very differently) that he later destroyed at the behest of a superior. He also later participated in the multi-agency interrogation of Oswald, about which a negligible paper trail survives. An uncommon signed work by a major figure in the JFK assassination mythos.
