Synopsis

Hidden Passages delves into the fascinating world beneath our feet, revealing the history of secret tunnels and subterranean realms across civilizations. These hidden spaces weren't just architectural quirks; they served critical roles in covert operations, escape routes, and even military strategy. Imagine entire networks built for clandestine purposes, reflecting the ingenuity and paranoia of societies facing threats. The book explores the construction, purpose, and discovery of these hidden passages, painting a vivid picture of their importance in historical events. From ancient civilizations to more modern eras, these passages have been instrumental in shaping history. Consider how secret tunnels provided escape routes for royalty or sanctuaries for persecuted groups, showcasing the resourcefulness of those seeking safety and security. 

 
Hidden Passages takes a narrative non-fiction approach, blending factual information with compelling stories. The book starts by introducing the diverse types of hidden passages found worldwide and traces their origins. Subsequent chapters explore their strategic use in times of war, their function as escape routes, and how archaeologists today locate and preserve these fragile historical sites, offering readers a unique lens through which to view history.

    The First Comprehensive Treatment of the Kennedy Assassination.  The US government lied to the American people about President Kennedy's death.  But, ironically it was the American people who solved the crime.  Over the past half century, hundreds of researchers investigated one or more parts of the murder, often using their own expertise, such as photography, computers, science, medical expertise, and analytical skills.  Taken together, their detailed work illuminated what really happened.  Author Donald T. Phillips has been following the Kennedy assassination since it happened.  This book begins at the end of World War II and concludes when the Warren Commission was formed.  Revealed along the way is the truth about the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the ambush in Dealey Plaza, and JFK's fraudulent autopsy.  During his two years and eight months in office, President Kennedy prevented the US government from instigating a war that could have involved nuclear weapons in Vietnam, Laos, Berlin, the Soviet Union, and Cuba.  He was leading the nation away from armed conflict, ending the Cold War, and setting the stage for a lasting peace with all nations.  IN doing so, however, JFK was threatening long-established kopek structures within the government.  So on November 22, 1963, in broad daylight, they shot him in the  back and blew his brains out.  It was a pre-meditated, deliberate, willful act of murder with malice aforethought.  And they got away with it.  No one who participated in the crime was ever brought to justice.  Treason From Within answers the questions:  Who killed President Kennedy?  Why was he killed?  How was he killed?
