Brad Meltzer

The St. Louis County Library Foundation’s Westfall Politics & History Series Presents #1 Bestselling Author and Historian Brad Meltzer

 
Author of “The JFK Conspiracy: The Secret Plot to Kill Kennedy–and Why It Failed”
 

Bestselling author Brad Meltzer shares the little-known story about the first assassination attempt on John F. Kennedy, right before his inauguration. Kennedy, the thirty-fifth president of the United States, is often ranked among Americans’ most well-liked presidents. Yet what most Americans don’t know is that JFK’s historic presidency almost ended before it began—at the hands of a disgruntled sociopathic loner armed with dynamite. Written in the gripping, page-turning style that is the hallmark of Brad Meltzer’s bestselling non-fiction series, this is a slice of history vividly brought to life.
