I've read a lot of books about JFK and his assassination but none have made me cry as much as this one. Clint Hill (a former secret service agent who is perhaps best known as the agent seen jumping on the back of the car after President Kennedy was shot) shares his memories step by step from the moment the Kennedy's left the White House for Texas up to Kennedy's burial. Though not a long-winded account, it's very emotional to hear from someone who was so close to these people, never mind the fact he put his life on the line every day in service to them.
