"I think Jim DiEugenio's book "Reclaiming Parkland" is really the up-to-date Bible of deconstructing the Bugliosi book which is necessary because that is extremely...it's a prosecution manual. But we needed Jim's book and very few people know about this book. I keep talking about it. I love "JFK and the Unspeakable" but I think this is state-of-the-art right now. "Reclaiming Parkland" takes apart everything. It goes back to the original evidence."
You really can't buy that sort of advertising Jim. Lovely to see.

Yeah, I thought it quite good at the time and with the movie coming out and all and the cover was good but it might do with a name change to make it more clear. Any chance of the publishers doing that now Jim? Or do you think best left as is?
