Summary
On December 23, 1966, Clay Shaw, a respected and respectable leader of the New Orleans business community, was called down to the office of District Attorney Jim Garrison to answer what seemed to be a few inconsequential questions. Two months of rumor and unpleasantness later, he found himself in the same office--charged with conspiracy in the assassination of President Kennedy!--dust jacket cover.
