The Housewives Underground: The Untold Story of the Women Who Made the JFK Assassination Our Most Enduring Mystery
by Kaitlyn Tiffany - History, Nonfiction

In the winter of 1967, the official account of the Kennedy assassination was beginning to unravel. Many of the most serious criticisms of the government’s work came from a source that surprised some: women who, within the community of critics, outnumbered the men two to one. Politicians and reporters dismissed these women, referring to them as “scavengers” and suggesting they were eccentrics with murder-mystery fixations or crushes on the deceased President Kennedy. But in THE HOUSEWIVES UNDERGROUND, Kaitlyn Tiffany takes readers back to the turbulent 1960s and 1970s --- a time when Americans’ belief in their government was eroding --- introducing readers to the so-called housewives who asked the first, hardest questions about one of the most shocking events in American history.
