Two Days of Infamy by Stanley J Marks
Stanley Marks-considered to be one of the most prescient, visionary researchers on the JFK assassination-described this work as "A nonfiction manual for the American of common sense ? interested in learning the deceit, deception, and duplicity practiced by the upholders of 'basic principles of justice,' the 'Warren Commission.'" Back in print now for the first time since 1969, it includes commentaries on "the Clay Shaw trial in New Orleans, Sirhan Sirhan in Los Angeles, and Earl Ray in Memphis." Although all of his books on the assassination contain fascinating, insightful observations, some consider Two Days of Infamy to be his most well-written work on the subject, due largely to its smooth narrative flow and literary presentation. In this March 1969 text he was already using the term "conspirators" when referring to the assassins of JFK, RFK, and MLK and states unequivocally: "All three were murdered as the end result of three interrelated conspiracies," adding: "History has shown that an invisible coup d'état occurred when President Kennedy was murdered." After the author Joachim Joesten learned of Stanley's work, he credited him with being one of the first American researchers who dared to use the word "coup" in this context: "To my knowledge, nobody but Jim Garrison and an obscure West Coast writer named Stanley J. Marks has ever endorsed before my unswerving contention that the murder of John F. Kennedy was nothing short of a camouflaged coup d'état." James DiEugenio, the renowned JFK scholar and author of Destiny Betrayed, recently referred to Marks as a "forgotten hero" and "buried gem," adding: "Rob Couteau has performed a miraculous deed. He has gotten two of the late Stanley Marks' books on the JFK case republished. Marks was way ahead of the field. While people like Harold Weisberg and Josiah Thompson were still counting bullets, he was calling JFK's death a coup d'etat. That is the perspective he wrote from way back in the late sixties. Don't pass up the chance to meet up with a prophet. Read both of these books. You will be shocked by the insight in them."
Marks, Stanley J.: - A fearless author who was blacklisted by the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), Stanley J. Marks was one of the first American researchers to draw a direct connection between the murders of JFK, MLK, and RFK. He published nineteen books on politics and religion, one of which received accolades from Arnold Toynbee and Herbert Marcuse. His first book, a bestseller titled The Bear that Walks Like a Man: A Diplomatic and Military Analysis of Soviet Russia (1943), was reviewed in over thirty mainstream newspapers and received glowing praise from John Cudahy, President Roosevelt's former ambassador to Poland and Belgium. While Marks was researching his book on Russia he received assistance from Secretary of State Cordell Hull, the father of the United Nations, who gave Marks direct access to State Department files. In 1973, the JFK Library contacted Marks with a request to purchase Murder Most Foul! for their collection. And in 1979, the House of Representatives Select Subcommittee on Assassinations cited five of Marks' assassination-related titles (including Murder Most Foul!) in its report.
