Product Information
A groundbreaking new reporting of the historical drama linking the Kennedys and the Castros that sheds new light on the JFK assassination. Using breakthrough reporting and interviews with long-silent sources, Russo and coauthor Stephen Molton have crafted a dramatic retelling of the time before, during, and after the Kennedy killing. The book centers on the two opposed sets of brothers--the Kennedys and the Castros--who collectively authored one of modern history's most dangerous, and tragically ironic, chapters. Bobby Kennedy pushed for the murder of Fidel Castro and instead got the death of his beloved brother, a psychic blow from which he himself never recovered. Lee Harvey Oswald killed an admired president and traumatized a nation, but in so doing may have prevented a third world war. Built on thirty years of intense research--including discoveries so significant that they have rekindled CIA and State Department interest in the Kennedy assassination-- Brothers in Arms is a vivid, character-driven, almost cinematic narration of a singularly fascinating time. For neophytes, it is the most accessible and informed single volume on the assassination. For the many readers fascinated by this story, it provides extraordinary new facts that will force a reconsideration of how and why the Kennedy murder came to pass.

Reviews
"Relying on past histories and innumerable interviews, the authors vividly reconstruct the Cold War atmosphere of the '60s… A serious, intriguing look at the blood feud whose horrible consequences continue to reverberate." - Kirkus "Gus Russo and Stephen Molton have fashioned heroic investigative reporting into a Shakespearean reckoning, lush with psychological and historical nuance, of the fateful symmetry between the personal and the political. Brothers in Arms is the wisest explanation I've seen of the Kennedy assassination. It is certainly the most tragic." - Diane McWhorter, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning Carry Me Home " Brothers in Arms has the pace of a page-turning thriller as it reveals the truth about an era of assassinations that influenced the course of history among the United States, Cuba, and the Soviet Union. Each chapter peels off another layer of the subterfuge and cover-ups that have hidden the facts about Robert Kennedy's determination to assassinate Castro and Castro's involvement in the assassination of President John Kennedy. What Robert Kennedy (to protect his family's legacy) and Lyndon Johnson (to protect the national security) kept secret from the Warren Commission is at last available to the American people and the world." -Joseph A Califano, Jr., Chairman and president, National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University, and former Special Assistant to Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara and Special Assistant for Domestic Affairs to President Lyndon Johnson "This astonishing book shedsnew light on the assassination of President Kennedy and the role of its many players, including the Castros.
