This is one of a series of books on the Kennedy assassination which is coming on the market just now. The book is dedicated to Mark Lane, whose activities we have commented upon from time to time, so readers will not be surprised that the answer to the question in the title is emphatically: "Fall Guy", This is a serious book complete with a documentary section of 25 payes. It is surprisingly up to date - it has the famous ‘matt in the doorway' photo, which shows a man with striking resemblance to Oswald coming out of the Depository where Oswald worked, The photo was taken at precisely ‘the time the shots were fired! The book itself has a history, hevinz been taken to publisher after publisher before the small firm of Carl Marzani (Marzani & Munsell Inc., 100 West 23rd. St. New York) agreed to publish it. The author believes that FBI pressure was responsible for the reluctance shown by other publishers, We haven't details as yet of how the book will be distributed in the U.K., but we urge readers to give this book the widest publicity, and anyone trying to get it into a library should contact the publishers. We will announce the British distributor as soon as the information is availabls.
