{"product_id":"books-act-of-treason-by-mark-north","title":"Act of Treason","description":"In this meticulously researched classic of the JFK conspiracy genre that Library Journal calls sensational, Mark North argues convincingly that President John F. Kennedy died as the result of a plot masterminded by Louisiana Mafia chieftain Carlos Marcello--and, more importantly, that FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover learned early on about the plan but did nothing to stop it. Hoover warned no one--not the Dallas police, not the Secret Service. His motives, North suggests, stemmed from a fervent hatred of Kennedy and fear that the President would eventually fire him. He is documented as a close confidant of Vice President Lyndon Johnson--a man Hoover controlled due to blackmail and scandals. Hoover's day-to-day running of the FBI, his strange personality, and his backroom dealings are brought to life using an extensive collection of press clippings, government documents, and other original sources. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eAct of Treason\u003c\/i\u003e is a must-read for any citizen who believes the Warren Commission failed miserably in its attempt to solve one of modern America's most pressing mysteries: \u003ci\u003eWho killed JFK? \u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53507399811345,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780881848779.jpg?v=1778125990","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-act-of-treason-by-mark-north","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
