Dick Russell Carroll and Graf, New York, 1992 This is one of the most interesting JFK assassination books to have emerged from the movie and 30th anniversary tie-in crop.

Gibbs is the author of three books, Money Bomb, The Mind Benders and Lemming Folk, the last being a pale British imitation of John Birch-type American global conspiracy theorising.
