Six Months Before Dallas: JFK, the Federal Reserve, and the Executive Order That Fueled a Conspiracy for Generations - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

On June 4, 1963, President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order 11110.

One hundred seventy-one days later, he was dead.

For decades, those two facts have been linked by one of the most persistent and controversial theories surrounding the Kennedy assassination: that JFK challenged the Federal Reserve, threatened powerful financial interests, and may have paid the ultimate price.

But what does the evidence actually show?

Six Months Before Dallas follows the money without deciding the verdict in advance. Drawing on Kennedy-era economic policy, Treasury records, Federal Reserve material, congressional investigations, declassified assassination files, and the history of Executive Order 11110 itself, Thomas Ellsworth separates documented fact from inference, disputed interpretation, and allegation.

Along the way, the book examines Kennedy’s relationship with the Federal Reserve, the real purpose of silver certificates, the famous claim that billions in Treasury-issued currency threatened the banking system, the financial interests affected by Kennedy’s policies, and the weaknesses in the original assassination investigation that helped conspiracy theories survive for generations.

What emerges is neither a conventional conspiracy book nor a dismissal of difficult questions.

It is a document-driven investigation into money, power, secrecy, and one murdered president.

Careful, provocative, and deeply researched, Six Months Before Dallas invites readers to look again at one of the most enduring mysteries in American history—and to follow the evidence wherever it leads.
