Groden, Robert J. and Livingstone, Harrison Edward. High Treason. New York: Berkley Books, 1990. 562 pages.

Groden, a photographic analyst who worked with the House Select Committee on Assassinations, and Livingstone, a long-time assassination researcher, cover these issues: the medical evidence and faked autopsy photos (100 pages), strange deaths of witnesses (20 pages), gaps in the official protection in Dallas (13 pages), the intelligence and Mafia connections of Oswald, Ruby, and others (95 pages), the faked photo of Oswald in his backyard (12 pages), acoustic and other evidence (60 pages), the House Assassinations Committee (64 pages), and the general historical context of Kennedy, the Bay of Pigs, and Vietnam (75 pages).

The appendix includes an article by Col. Fletcher Prouty on NSAM 263, which he helped write in late 1963. At the time Prouty was with the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and had been in the Pentagon supporting clandestine ops for nine years. He has no doubt what was happening with respect to Vietnam: Kennedy was trying to get out just before he was assassinated, and a pro- escalation policy was in place almost immediately after. Additional research has been done on this topic (see "The Assassinations" by Peter Dale Scott and "JFK and Vietnam" by John M. Newman). But this evidence is so unsettling for comfortable historians that denials and documentary reinterpretations continue to emerge from both ends of the political spectrum.
