Ebook About “The single best book ever written on the Kennedy assassination” (Thomas Mallon, author of Mrs. Paine's Garage): A Kennedy insider tells the shocking story of Lee Harvey Oswald's path to killing JFK Marina and Lee is an indispensable account of one of America's most traumatic events and a classic work of narrative history. In her meticulous—at times even moment by moment—account of Oswald's progress toward the assassination of JFK, Priscilla Johnson McMillan takes us inside Oswald's fevered mind and his manic marriage. Only a few weeks after the birth of their second child, Oswald’s wife, Marina, hears of Kennedy's death and discovers that Lee's rifle is missing from the garage where it was stored. She knows that her husband has killed the President. McMillan came to the story with a unique knowledge of the two main characters. In the 1950s, she worked for Kennedy and had known him well for a time. Later, working in Moscow as a journalist, she interviewed Lee Harvey Oswald during his attempt to defect to the Soviet Union. When she heard his name again on November 22, 1963, she said, "My God! I know that boy!" Marina and Lee was written with the complete and exclusive cooperation of Oswald's Russian-born wife, Marina Prusakova, whom McMillan debriefed for seven months in the immediate aftermath of the President's assassination and her husband's nationally televised execution at the hands of Jack Ruby. The truth is far more compelling, and unsettling, than the most imaginative conspiracy theory. Marina and Lee is a human drama that is outrageous, heartbreaking, tragic, fascinating—and real.“It is not at all easy to describe the power of Marina and Lee . . . It is far better than any other book about Kennedy . . . Other books about the Kennedy assassination are all smoke and no fire. Marina and Lee burns.” —New York Times Book ReviewBook Marina and Lee: The Tormented Love and Fatal Obsession Behind Lee Harvey Oswald's Assassination of John F. Kennedy Review :
After reading MANY books on JFK, his presidency, the CIA, Lee Harvey Oswald, The Dulles brothers, Lyndon Johnson, J.Edgar Hoover, the Secret Service, etc..., I finally decided to read this 624 page book...what a pack of lies...it's as if the author was paid by the government to smear a man who was found guilty ONLY IN THE COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION...the Warren Commission itself only believed Marina Oswald's testimony half of the time, because it changed constantly. The only time they did believe her was when it suited their nefarious purposes, covering up everything as quickly as they could, with their preconceived verdict. Any serious JFK assassination researcher can skip this fairy tale, as well as "Lee", by Robert Oswald...both are long on BLAH BLAH BLAH, and seriously short on actual facts. It says in the foreword, "By a startling coincidence, she had known Marina's husband.", referring to the author, Priscilla Johnson McMillan...right...almost certainly a CIA asset, it is only a "startling coincidence" to the uninformed. I would have given this book ZERO stars, if it had been an option. Rachael and June Oswald Porter should have sued this woman for slander and character assassination. Priscilla Johnson's book is eminently readable, a richly detailed page-turner.Though convinced of Lee Harvey Oswald's sole guilt in President Kennedy's assassination, she doesn't demonize him. She is both accusing and sympathetic, though she considers him far more blameworthy than not--and with all good reason: Oswald was an abusive chauvinist, irascible, self-absorbed, cold, narcissistic, an ingrate and an inveterate liar, all of which repelled the great majority of people both in his personal and work life. She delves deeply into his upbringing and in so doing exposes the root of his psychopathy: his impetuous, unstable mother Marguerite. (The 17 years Lee lived under her roof, they moved some 18 times.) On balance, he was more the solicitous father than husband. He was bright, an avid reader and articulate, as well. Apart from those qualities, though, his pluses were few.As for his ill-fated Russian wife, Marina, she was all charmed by the American when they first met after his defection to the Soviet Union in 1959. But she grew increasingly frightened of him after he returned to the U.S. with her in 1962: frightened of his intensity, his physical and emotional abuse (both private and public), his unpredictability, secrecy, and extremism; frightened by his purchase of a rifle and revolver the last year of his life, and worst of all, frightened by his solitary attempt in April of that year on the life of retired General Edwin Walker, a deep-dyed fascist and the most prominent member of the right-wing John Birch Society. Walker was a man that Oswald--a self-described Marxist who dreamed of being president of the United States one day (!)--loathed and viewed as a menace to society.Marina felt trapped in her marriage, principally because the possessive, domineering Lee wouldn't allow her to learn English--supposedly because he didn't want to lose his hold on the Russian language. In actuality, he feared her mastering English would jeopardize his control over her. She enjoyed precious little freedom during their 15 months together in America. Due to the language barrier, and being the mother of a baby girl (whom Lee adored), she couldn't work; she had no driver's license (Lee himself didn't own a license, never having learned to drive), and money Lee doled out to her was meager. She was stuck, vulnerable to Lee's lunacy, experiencing little happiness under his roof.But Johnson isn't blind to Marina's own marital shortcomings: "Neither was an angel," she avers of the couple, but Lee was far and away the more difficult partner, as the book amply attests--indeed, he was a disturbed, overgrown boy, essentially. Her faults were comparatively minor: She could be testy, mocking, and stubborn, yes; but when she stepped out of line in a way he considered egregious, he'd fly at her with bruising slaps in the face.LONE ASSASSIN? "EMPHATICALLY, YES"Johnson is firmly convinced that Oswald acted alone in the commission of Kennedy's murder. (So was his brother Robert, always: "Lee actually committed the crime, period," he told ABC News. Furthermore, his half-brother John Pic was of the same conviction.)It didn't require exceptional know-how to pull off--any more than it was required for the assassination of Presidents Garfield and McKinley by lone losers Charles Guiteau and Leon Czolgosz, respectively. All that was necessary was fanatical determination, favorable circumstances, and a driving hatred of sociopolitical injustices, real or imagined.In her introduction, Johnson states:"Since the book first appeared in 1977, I have been asked many times whether I still believe that Lee Harvey Oswald alone killed President Kennedy. My answer is emphatically, yes. No new evidence has surfaced, no conspiracy theory has appeared to fundamentally alter the picture of Oswald. [ . . . ] Presented unexpectedly and after a decade of failed dreams with a target who could be seen as the embodiment of US capitalism, this man chose to commit the world-changing deed he had dreamt of all his life."But what of Marina? Did she believe Lee had acted alone? According to Johnson, who interviewed Marina for seven months, when she visited him in jail the day after the murder, she was certain that Lee was guilty, his denial of guilt notwithstanding:"She saw the guilt in his eyes. Moreover, she knew that had he been innocent he would have been screaming to high heaven for his 'rights,' claiming he had been mistrusted and demanding to see officials at the very highest levels, just as he had always done before. For her the fact that he was so compliant, that he had told her he was being was being treated 'all right,' was a sign that he was guilty."When Johnson asked Marina whether she thought Lee was capable of joining with others to commit the assassination, "Never," she answered. He was too secretive, and he wanted the glory for himself alone. A team player he was not.In her testimony before the Warren Commission in 1964 and then in 1978 before the House Select Committee on Assassinations, Marina stated that she believed her husband was guilty of Kennedy's murder. She changed her tune some years later, but I'm not buying and the reason is simple: What Johnson reports Marina to have said of her visit with Lee in jail has the perfect ring of truth, an admission that no retraction of hers can quash. To repeat: Had he been innocent, "he would have been screaming to high heaven for his 'rights' and demanding to see officials at the very highest levels, just as he had always done before."Precisely: just as the pitifully self-entitled Lee had always done before, certain as he was that "he was a great man who had been unjustly denied recognition."
