About This Item

Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 2013. Advance Reader's Edition [uncorrected page proofs]. Trade paperback. Good.. xxix, [1], 238 p. Illustrations. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Stephen Fagin begins "Assassination and Commemoration" by retracing the events that culminated in Lee Harvey Oswald's shots at the presidential motorcade. He vividly describes the volatile political climate of midcentury Dallas as well as the shame that haunted the city for decades after the assassination. The book highlights the decades-long work of people determined to create a museum that commemorates a president and recalls the drama and heartbreak of November 22, 1963. Fagin narrates the painstaking day-to-day work of cultivating the support of influential citizens and convincing boards and committees of the importance of preservation and interpretation. Author Stephen Fagin is the associate curator at The Sixth Floor Museum. Conover Hunt, who wrote the Foreword, is one of the Museum s two key founders, along with preservation activist Lindalyn Adams. The Preface was written by Edward T. Linenthal.
