Paper Summary:
This paper states that "Crossfire" presents virtually every conspiracy theory ever applied to the JFK assassination. The author feels that the biggest problem with this book is the sheer amount of information it provides with so many minute details, that it is easy to loose sight of the big picture. The author feels that Marrs presents an inescapable conclusion that the President's assassination was the result of some kind of conspiracy.
From the Paper:
"Marrs' background as a journalist serves him well as he examines theories claiming everyone from the Mob to the CIA to anti-Castro Cubans to J.Edgar Hoover's G-men to Lee Harvey Oswald were responsible for Kennedy's assassination. He points out inconsistencies within and across theories. Nor does he spare the official versions of what happen. He pounces like a hungry tiger on the unexplained elements of the Warren Commission Report raising questions that are difficult to answer or explain away as irrelevant."
