RETKO!

with Thomas Buchanan. b/w plates.

Thirty-one minutes past twelve on a
November afternoon in Dallas, Texas...
The sun was shining, Texans were welcoming the Kennedys with unexpected friendliness and the President himself had just agreed that `You can never say after this that they don`t love you in Texas.` It was then that one of the most able politicians the world has known was assassinated by someone whose identity has never been proved.
Exactly how he was assassinated is also unknown. It might have been an American political action, it might have been Castro-inspired, it might merely have been the work of a psychopath.
In attempting to throw new light on the assassination, Nerin Gun has investigated the hour-by-hour events preceding and following the tragedy and fully examines the background of the leading protagonists involved. He traced the steps of Lee Harvey Oswald as far as Mexico and presents a penetrating portrait of the No. 1 suspect. He also poses many pertinent questions regarding the alleged assassin. Who, for example, exactly was he? Was he a U.S. Secret Service agent ? Was he the only killer, or were there others? Why hasn`t the revolver which killed policeman Tippitt been produced and what are the inferences to be drawn from the fact that it has never been proved that Oswald possessed such a fire-arm?
Red loses From Texas is a timely document that gets the scene for the tragic events of that November afternoon and enables us to view he great American tragedy in broader perspective.

`Three times that day in Texas we were greeted with bouquets of the yellow roses of Texas. Only in Dallas they gave me red roses. I remember thinking: How funny - red roses for me.` Jacqueline Kennedy.
