Media Reviews

"Some of the 70-odd cases here are gruesome; some are mysterious; all are sad. Many of these people are little more than a bone or two shipped to Ubelaker in a cardboard box. The book contains sketches of some who are (or were, when 'Bones' was written) still unidentified, accompanied by information about whom to contact if a sketch rings a bell. Look hard."    -- David Pitt

Live by the Sword
by Gus Russo

Humiliated at the Bay of Pigs, John and Robert Kennedy sought desperately to eliminate Castro. Their strategies for overthrowing the Cuban leader were so elaborate and bizarre, they could only engender paranoia. Castro openly threatened to retaliate. Pro-Castro agitator Lee Harvey Oswald learned that Robert Kennedy was personally supervising groups plotting against the Cuban leader. Filled with rage and a sense of destiny, Oswald went to the Cuban embassy in Mexico, announcing he would kill America's president in exchange for sanctuary in Havana. Live By the Sword forces the conclusion that members of the Cuban regime accepted the troubled American's offer.
