“The first comprehensive work of its type that attempts to deal with the life and thoughts of the alleged assassin… a fascinating book, highly readable, and very frankly hard to put down… entertaining, informative, well written, and well documented.”
“The finest, most insightful, and most carefully researched study of Oswald to date…. To read Marina and Lee is to be awash in alternate waves of depression and fascination while recognizing that powerful intelligence has reconstructed one of the truly sad and terrible stories of our time.”
“Not only admirable as a piece of writing but a valuable historical document…. The fruit of all [McMillan’s] devoted labor reads almost like a Dostoyevsky novel which treads the threshold of insanity… a deeply impressive book, penetrating the smokescreen of argument and speculation… the writing is stamped on every page with the sense of truth.”
“An eminently human book.”
“A painstakingly detailed piece of work, a marvel of research.”
“Marina and Lee, one of the finest books yet written about a still painful subject, stands as a tragic account of a relationship ultimately destroyed by politics. It is required reading for anyone interested in what went on in the mind of the man accused of murdering a president.”
“Not likely to be surpassed… a compelling story told with a mature authority. Without detracting from the horror of the act, it forces us to confront the human face of the assassin.”
