Just thought I'd mention that Progressive Press have reprinted Gibson's long out-of-print THE KENNEDY ASSASSINATION COVER-UP. It's a detailed, thoughtful and cleverly argued volume that moves Gibson's analysis beyond the events detailed in BATTLING WALL STREET, and onto the Warren Commission and the parties involved in burying the truth. The Amazon link is here -

Progressive Press also reprinted Gibson's BATTLING WALL STREET earlier this year, following a suggestion from Webster Tarpley, who was enthusiastic about the book. In that volume, I noticed Progressive Press editor John Leonard added the following text to the copyright page:
This is an exact reprint of the original 1994 text from Sheridan Square Press, publishers of a series of eminently courageous political titles in the 1990's. "Sheridan was forced out of business by the staggering costs of defending against a libel suit, brought by an arms dealer who is a friend of George W. Bush." - Daily Kos

There is a PDF of the original book floating around on the interwebs. It's an important work.

You can read quite a lot of the book here:

That being said, I will definitely be buying a physical copy when it is officially re-released.

RK, just to confirm, it's out now and available for purchase - see link in the first post at top. I'll add too that I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the earlier BATTLING WALL STREET reissue - good paper, perfect printing.
