Friendly Fire on Holy Grounds
by P. Yip et al.

General description: Ira Jesse Hemingway explores the Kennedy assasination as a conspiracy. Friendly Fire on Holy Grounds takes readers from 1954, the beginning of allegedly corrupt inventory stockpiling in Washington, D.C., to 1973, the beginning of President Nixon's downfall during the Watergate scandal. Hemingway details how U.S. President Kennedy was in the process of purging the America's capitol of criminals, regardless of their party affiliation. Kennedy did not keep his intense personal interest in the 'stockpile quandry' a secret. He ordered a U.S. Senate investigation, which Hemingway maintains, cost him his life.

Using a straightforward journalistic style based on thorough investigation rather than political appeasement, Hemingway attacks the Warren Commission like a charging lion hitting the throat of a defenseless gazelle. He traces the life of a President with a noble mission and deftly deciphers the clues that Kennedy left behind.

The information Kennedy was preparing to reveal would shake the foundation of the political structure. Hemingway writes, "The United States government has argued their version through the Warren Commission Report for over four decades. Now, let me present [to] you the other side. [Y]ou decide the truth."

An intriguing book that picks up the shattered threads of a fallen U.S. President's search for truth, Friendly Fire on Holy Grounds offers fresh perspective on an unsolved mystery that is more than 40 years old.

Hemingway holds a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, with a minor in Safety Management. He has worked in the chemical industry field for the past 20 years. While serving in the U.S. Navy, he participated in a secret operation off the coast of the former Soviet Union. His research on the fall of the Soviet Union led him to the stockpile investigation ordered by U.S. President Kennedy, and he has invested years of study in 'Friendly Fire on Holy Grounds'. Hemingway has written trade manuals for small businesses, a screenplay and another work of nonfiction. He and his wife of more than 20 years have three children and currently live in El Cajon, California, in the United States.

Like most people that lived through the JFK assassination I can remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I heard the news of his death like time stopped. I never believed what the United States government passed off as factual rationale, for the cause of this tragedy. The Warren Commission report did not make sense. I read it in the 1965 and could sense that something was not right. A friend of mine recommended this book to me she knew I was like a majority of people alive, thinking that we would go to our grave not knowing what really happened to JFK. It was her husband a career law enforcement official that convinced me to read this story; it was the best documentation surrounding the crime he claimed.

Mr. Hemingway takes you on a trek that only he and JFK travelled while presenting new facts that I have never heard and would have never thought of. I would have never imagined that murdering someone over a political mistake could have caused the turmoil it did. So much of the story sounds like what is going in the United States today, it borders on surreal. The book made me livid.

When I was finished reading this book; there was a lot of corruption exposed. Truly I can accept this research as fact and this gives me a sense of closure to this grave incident in United States history. Some minor editing changes could be made; but it did not overshadow the ground breaking content and earthshaking ideas made this incredible.
