The Greatest Unsolved Mystery: Who Really Killed JFK?

The Garlands of Barrington, 1000 Garlands Lane, Barrington, will host a program on the JFK assassination.

It remains the most controversial case in modern American history and yet with all we know of the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy, there’s so much that continues to be hidden and illusive. Join us to hear historian, Barry Bradford explore not only the facts of this unsettled case, but also its impact on the lives of American Presidents today. The event is sponsored by the Barrington Area Library.
