Prima edizione
1st edition. Fine cloth copy in an equally fine dust-wrapper. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Physical description; 399 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates: illustrations; 24 cm. Includes bibliographical references and index. Contents; December 1963: the nation responds -- January 1964: distrust of the FBI grows -- February 1964: the search for evidence begins -- March 1964: our investigation expands -- April 1964: Mexico and the Cuban connection -- May 1964: critical decisions -- June 1964: crucial witnesses -- July / August 1964: a tale of tragic truth -- September 1964: the last debates -- Aftermath. Summary; "On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was murdered in front of hundreds of onlookers. Everything was over in mere seconds, but the events of that day have been the subject of heated debate for five decades. The presidential commission tasked with finding the truth, headed by then-Chief Justice Earl Warren, published its findings the following year--Oswald had acted alone--but the report did little to quell conspiracy theorists. Many seized on what they saw as inconsistencies in the report and branded the whole investigation a cover-up. Warren himself calmly dismissed the criticism, assuring his fellow commission members that 'history will prove us right.' Now, in this eye-opening new account of the Commission and its findings, Howard P. Willens sets out to prove that Warren's advice was prescient. Willens, one of the few surviving staff members of the Warren Commission, supervised the investigation from the very beginning and has waited until now to silence the critics and well-intentioned armchair detectives. Drawn from Willens' own journals and extensive notes on the investigation--which have never before been published--History Will Prove Us Right tells the true and complete story, perhaps for the first time, of every aspect of the investigation into one of the century's most harrowing events from a uniquely first-person perspective." Subjects; Kennedy, John F. (John Fitzgerald) 1917-1963 - Assassination. Willens, Howard P. 1931-. United States. Warren Commission. 1 Kg.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. Willens, Kathy (jacket photograph); Kidd, Chip (jacket design); Seitz, Art (spine-of-jacket photograph); Erickson, Roger (back-of-jacket photograph) (illustratore). 1st Edition. As new condition dark blue boards, red spine, and silver spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Preliminary Page Quote; Preface; Epilogue; Acknowledgments; Appendix I: Billie Jean (Moffitt) King; Appendix II: Billie Jean (Moffitt) King International Team Play; Appendix III: World Team Tennis; Index; Photographic Credits; and A Note About the Authors. Illustrated with three sections of black-and-white photographic plates and one section of color photographic plates. "An inspiring and intimate self-portrait by Billie Jean King, the champion of equality, that encompasses her brillinat tennis career and unwavering commitment to social justice even as she was engaged in a private struggle to publicly and unequivocally be her true self. Billie Jean King was the first of her kind, a woman athlete who became a global cultural icon because of her pioneering activism as much as her spectacular playing career. A handful of other female athletes had taken stands here or there before, but King was the first to outwardly rebel and then carry the fight for women as a group. She is an original. Her watershed "Battle of the Sexes: match against Bobby Riggs in 1973 was watched by an estimated 90 million people worldwide. What started for King as a young girl's quest for individual freedom expanded into broader issues over time. In this spirited account, King describes the rollicking early days of the pro tennis world she pushed to create and her evolution into a thirty-nine-time Grand Slam champion, an activist, a feminist, a political influencer, and a public figure who was at first so fearful of admitting her sexual identity, and then so closeted once she did, her physical and emotional health suffered. King recounts in vivid detail the cultural backdrop of those years and the profound impact on her worldview from the civil rights movement, the women's movement, the Cold War, the assassinations and antiwar protests of the 1960s, and, later, the LGBTQ+ rights movement. She poignantly describes her oft-submerged struggle to be her "authentic self" - the hard-won place where her public and private lives converged, though not until the age of fifty-one, after she narrowly averted financial peril when she was outed and sought in-patient treatment for an eating disorder fourteen years later. All In is a bracingly candid and complex autobiography of an athlete-activist that reminds us of the scale of her challenges and triumphs, vision and courage. As King notes, so many of the issues she and others have fougnt for are being reargued today. All In situates King in a new context - the here and now - looking backward (and forward) with the benefit of her accumulated wisdom, grace, and insights. The result is the story of a woman with an indomitable spirit who continues to advocate for equity and inclusion today." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
