No proof here

This book recycled all the sorties about JFK killing and those “involved”. Stone sets out to show that LBJ was responsible but offers no proof

Very very poorly researched ... a waste of money!!!

Two hours into the book there are so many inaccuracies, and so much hearsay, the author is also jumping around eras confusingly. I have read 5 other books on this topic, all of which were well researched and provided credible references.
I have no doubt LBJ was complicit in the assassination but, already early on in this book, Roger Stone has lost all credibility. Its like the town drunk at the end of the bar is skimming over history adding any BS or conjecture possible for effect.

very believable

If you could sum up The Man Who Killed Kennedy in three words, what would they be?

A different look at the JFK conspiracy that will answer a few questions as well as ask them

What other book might you compare The Man Who Killed Kennedy to, and why?

JFK and the unspeakable is still the daddy for me

What does David Rapkin bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

An easy to listen to voice so you don't miss much

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Guilty?????

Any additional comments?

A great listen that shows you just how bent politics was at this time Hoover LBJ the CIA the FBI even the Kennedy's it dose not miss anyone

A rehashing of the ITN documentary The Men Who Killed Kennedy

Nothing new at all, and although an interesting listen, there's no smoking gun to connect LBJ to the assassination.

Compelling

Roger Stone makes a compelling case against LBJ.
For example,
# LBJ's use of his secretary pool as his harem!
# LBJ's intimidation and murder of witnesses. At first witnesses of LBJ's voting corruption, and later of JFK's assassination.
# LBJ's, corrupt relationships with the CIA, Texas oilmen, arms manufactures, and organised crime, resulting in the murder of JFK and the prolongation of the Vietnam War.

Roger Stone has written a well-researched narrative that includes many details missed, or deliberately ignored, by other authors.

Believable.

Sounds about right, so much to take in and no one alive to say yes or no to it all.

LJB probably did kill JFK but this book offers no proof

A decent read/listen but I suspect a bit of hyperbole from who is now yet another Trump coconspirator locked up in jail.
I would bet that LBJ did have JFK killed but this book offers nothing but circumstantial and character based evidence. There are no hard facts or proof points even half suggested.
That said, it does offer a good insight into the man and good motives and operandi.
There are better books out there on LBJ and the JFK assassination.

Beyond Reasonable Doubt?

A compelling and fascinating dissection of the JFK assassination. As well as dissecting the available (Not destroyed) evidence it takes a forensic look into who wanted JFK dead and who profited from his death. It becomes clear that only one man could sit at the centre of the web, and that was the man who inherited the greatest prize of all - the White House itself. Does this book prove the case beyond reasonable doubt? Listen and decide yourself , you'll certainly enjoy the trial whatever you decide.

Not Just Another Conspiracy Theory !

Did LBJ kill President Kennedy ? I don't as a rule believe in conspiracy theories. Nor do I believe LBJ killed President Kennedy. So why am I reading this book ? The simple answer is I like a good conspiracy theory and if there is one conspiracy theory that I do believe is that the original conclusions of the Warren Commission are false. My own view is that there was more than one assassin that shot dead Kennedy. There was probably two gunmen in the Depository building (one being Oswald) and one marksman behind the grassy knoll who fired the final and fatal bullet. Who was responsible for the plot to assassinate Kennedy ? One of the usual suspects, in my view: the Russians, Cubans, CIA, Johnson or the Mafia; take your pick. For me, the most likely suspects are the Russians, which is why there was a cover up to avoid a military confrontation at the height of the Cold War. This is an interesting book full of conjecture and all I will say is that it makes an argument that Johnson could have been behind Kennedy's murder, although, I don't personally believe it. You will probably take a different view to mine after reading this book.

My rating 4/5. Interesting theory which many people now believe, however, I do not which is why I deduct 1 star. It could only get 5 stars if I believe LBJ did it. Nevertheless, I give it a high 4 stars because it provides a lot of information and also describes LBJ's hatred of the Kennedy's. It is also quite amusing as the author clearly cannot stand LBJ.
