November 22, 1963: Reflections on the Life, Assassination, and Legacy of John F. Kennedy
“A mostly reverential compendium of voices touched by the promise and spirit of John F. Kennedy’s presidency—and the shock of his death. . . . All walks of life are represented in this immense cross section of Americans' grief and groping for comprehension.” (Kirkus Reviews)“Dean Owen reminds us of a loss that was painful and a legacy that endures.” (John Seigenthaler, Sr., Journalist, Author, First Amendment Historian)“A fascinating project that will resonate deeply with all of us who remember JFK, and will provide an enlightening service for those too young for personal recollection.” (Michael Medved, Syndicated Radio Host)“Dean Owen did what a lot of reporters seem to have forgotten how to do these days, he asked the people who were there that awful day what they saw and how they felt. This is a must-read for anyone who wants a better understanding of what happened on the weekend that America lost its innocence. A terrific read.” (Bob Schieffer, CBS News)“John Kennedy helped us believe in ourselves and Dean Owen brings to life the man who inspired us, and an inspiration we so desperately need today.” (Roger Wilkins, Civil Rights Leader, Pulitzer Prize-Winning Journalist)“This book gives readers a real-world glimpse into this extraordinary man, John Kennedy, and the truly great president he was.” (Martin Sheen)
