Summary

One man’s quest to investigate a dismissed eyewitness account of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. 
 
Victoria Elizabeth Adams worked on the fourth floor of the Texas School Book Depository in 1963. She was on the back staircase of the building at the precise moment that Lee Harvey Oswald—according to the Warren Commission’s account—was making his escape. Yet, Adams saw and heard no one. 
 
This is the story—both frightening and fascinating—about a journey to seek the truth in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. After a three-decade quest and an array of obstacles, investigative journalist Barry Ernest brings the full account of the girl on the stairs to life. 
 
Ernest, a frequent lecturer on the topic of the Kennedy assassination, won the 2011 Mary Ferrell Pioneer Award, a national honor presented for a lifetime of searching for the truth. 
 
David S. Lifton, author of the New York Times bestseller Best Evidence: Disguise and Deception in the Assassination of John F. Kennedy, provides a foreword to this intriguing saga.

    A powerful feminist examination of the deeply ingrained roots of rape in our shared cultural values Rape is the most frequently occurring violent crime in America. In this courageous, controversial, and groundbreaking work, the poet, feminist, and philosopher Susan Griffin examines rape as an inevitable result of a culture that celebrates and rewards aggressive sexual behavior in men, and one in which male dominance and female submissiveness have long been considered natural.   With razor-sharp intelligence, clear-eyed candor, and surprising lyricism, Griffin explores the psychological, historical, political, and societal underpinnings of this devastating act, which cruelly denies a victim her self-determination. By viewing the dark phenomenon of rape through the lens of her personal experience—and through the words of injured parties, writers, legal agencies, and the media—Griffin’s powerful discourse is an essential contribution to feminist thought and literature.

    Crime expert Linda Fairstein reveals the sinister ways that rapists select and attack their victims, and what you need to know to protect yourself From the man who haunted midtown Manhattan’s high-rise office buildings, to the stalker in the wooded suburbs near Nashville, serial rapists often have one chilling trait in common: They operate in “comfort zones.” Sometimes they find their own comfort zones, such as the stairwell of a familiar office building. Other times they may pinpoint their victims’ comfort zones, such as the bedroom of an unlocked house. In both cases, experienced sexual predators exploit their potential victims’ most unguarded moments. In How Serial Rapists Target Their Victims, Linda Fairstein breaks down the patterns of these violent criminals and describes the day-to-day ways that women can best safeguard against them. Originally published in Cosmopolitan, this essay is now available in digital format for the first time and features a new introduction by the author.

    ** Fair warning:  This is a true story of sexual abuse, drugs, rape, betrayal and triumph **
    
    
    **Warning:  This book contains crude language and is not for the faint of heart**
    
    
    As I sat down to write this story about my life, I had to think a long time about how to start my story.
    
    I learned early that you cannot substitute water for milk on cereal so when there was no milk in the house, I just ate it dry.
    
    Dad was pretty cranky just as a general rule. He’d come home from work and throw a temper tantrum at all the dirty dishes and no supper and Mom would say, “Oh shut up and drink your beer.”
    
    It was not a nice thing, the way Len started treating me. I remember scenes like the time he pushed me and sat on me.
    
    I had to stop and think about what happened next in this sick saga.
