Product Information

THE SECRET SERVICE. An elite team of men who share a single mission: to protect the president of the United States. On November 22, 1963, these men failed-and a country would never be the same. Now, for the first time, a member of JFK's Secret Service detail reveals the inside story of the assassination, the weeks and days that led to it and its heartrending aftermath. This extraordinary book is a moving, intimate portrait of dedication, courage, and loss. Drawing on the memories of his fellow agents, Jerry Blaine captures the energetic, crowd-loving young president, who banned agents from his car and often plunged into raucous crowds with little warning. He describes the careful planning that went into JFK's Texas swing, the worries and concerns that agents, working long hours with little food or rest, had during the trip. And he describes the intensely private first lady making her first-ever political appearance with her husband, just months after losing a newborn baby. Here are vivid scenes that could come only from inside the Kennedy detail: JFK's last words to his tearful son when he left Washington for the last time; how a sudden change of weather led to the choice of the open-air convertible limousine that day; Mrs. Kennedy standing blood-soaked outside a Dallas hospital room; the sudden interruption of six-year-old Caroline's long-anticipated sleepover with a friend at home; the exhausted team of agents immediately reacting to the president's death with a shift to LBJ and other key governmental figures; the agents' dismay at Jackie's decision to walk openly from the White House to St. Matthew's Cathedral at the state funeral. Most of all, this is a look into the lives of men who devoted their entire beings to protecting the presidential family: the stress of the secrecy they kept, the emotional bonds that developed, the terrible impact on agents' psyches and families, and their astonishment at the country's obsession with far-fetched conspiracy theories and finger-pointing. A book fifty years in coming, The Kennedy Detail is a portrait of incredible camaraderie and incredible heartbreak-a true, must-read story of heroism in its most complex and human form. *** A medic burst out of the trauma room, and instinctively Clint Hill took a step toward Mrs. Kennedy. "He's still breathing," the man said as he rushed past. Mrs. Kennedy stood up. "Do you mean he may live?" she asked.   No one answered.   Kellerman handed the phone back to Hill and rushed back into the trauma room. "Clint, what happened?" Jerry Behn asked earnestly. "Shots fired during the motorcade," Clint said as he kept an eye on Mrs. Kennedy across the hall. "It all happened so fast. We were five minutes away from the Trade Mart. . . . The situation is critical. Jerry, prepare for the worst. . . ."   The operator cut into the line, "Attorney General Robert Kennedy wants to talk to Agent Hill."   "What's going on down there?!" Bobby Kennedy demanded. "Shots fired during the motorcade," Clint repeated. "The president is very seriously injured. They're working on him now. Governor Connally was hit too."   "Well, what do you mean, seriously injured? How serious?"   Clint swallowed hard. It was all he could do to keep it together. "It's as bad as it can get."   -From The Kennedy Detail: JFK's Secret Service Agents Break Their Silence

    Great Book

    As a Republican who loved JFK the way so many did, this book was extremely enlightening. Although I watched on television the aftermath of JFK's assignation,I cried for myself and the American people, but who cried for the Kennedy detail. There will probably not be a president who will have a more loyal and brave secret service. God bless them and their families. Please read this book!!! Enlightening.

    This is one to fill a corner of history. No info for assassination buffs.

    Few shockers here...their loyalty to JFK is still apparent fifty years later. Interesting to note that while the SS Agents don't flat out deny affairs with Angie Dickinson & Marilyn Monroe, they do make a point of mentioning them both! When it gets to the Johnson pages, the loyalty understandably diminishes. That's where you'll see the tone suddenly become very candid!

    A WELL WRITTEN BOOK ON THE SECRET SERVICE AGENTS VIEWS

    A WELL WRITTEN BOOK ON THE JFK ASSASSINATION THAT TELLS THE STORY FROM THE SECRET SERVICE POINT OF VIEW....I AM A LONG TIME JFK ASSASSINATION RESEARCHER AND RADIO TALK SHOW HOST. I HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF MEETING WITH AND SPEAKING TO THE BOOKS AUTHORS AT THE TEXAS SCHOOL BOOK DEPOSITORY (6th floor museum) ON NOVEMBER 20th 2010.LISA McCUBBIN,JERRY BLAINE AND CLINT HILL PROVIDE THEIR VIEWS AND SOME PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN EXPLANATIONS IN THE KENNEDY DETAIL.IT IS A NON CONSPIRACY BOOK ...HOWEVER I THINK IT PROVIDES ADDED KNOWLEDGE REGARDLESS OF ANYONES PRO OR NON CONSPIRACY BELIEFS. I MYSELF BELIEVE IT IS IMPORTANT TO READ EVERYTHING ON THE SUBJECT THAT BECOMES AVAILABLE AND MADE YOUR OWN JUDGEMENT.-ED "EDWARDS" PETEJA
