THE DOWNING OF TWA FLIGHT 800

"The U.S. Government knows that TWA Flight 800 was shot out of the sky by accident by an unarmed missile launched during a military exercise--but is attempting to hide this fact from the families of the victims and from the American people."

For anyone who tires of reading about past deeds of a government that has ceased to be a servant of its people, look no further. James Sanders has given us his exhaustively researched story of a coverup that is a work in progress. In fact, the author tracks events through March, 1997, with Federal Bureau of Investigation and National Transportation Safety Board harrassment of himself, his sources, family members, and anyone in the media who dares to publicize the results of his investigation--including Inside Edition and CBS News, who initially expressed keen interest in the story.

Unlike some whistleblower stories, this one is extremely readable. At no point does Mr. Sanders leave the reader wondering what missed fact might have caused him to lose the thread of the story. The book's mountain of evidence and flawless logic led this reader to the clear conclusion that orders from high in the Executive branch led to the burying of this story, perhaps because it might prove too embarrassing for a President facing re-election.

A must read!
