On November 22, 1963, President John F. Kennedy was murdered in front of hundreds of onlookers. Everything was over in mere seconds, but the events of that day have been the subject of heated debate for five decades. The presidential commission, established by President Lyndon B. Johnson was headed by then-Chief Justice Earl Warren. Tasked with determining the truth, the Warren Commission investigated the Kennedy assassination and published its report the following year. September 2014 marks the 50th anniversary of the release of the Warren Commission findings.

Now, in this eye-opening new account of the Commission and its findings, Howard P. Willens sets out to prove that Warren's advice was prescient. Willens, the only living member of the three-person supervisory staff of the Warren Commission, supervised the investigation from the very beginning and has waited until now to silence the critics and well-intentioned armchair detectives. Drawn from Willens' own journals and extensive notes on the investigation--which have never before been published--History Will Prove Us Right tells the true and complete story, perhaps for the first time, of every aspect of the investigation into one of the century's most harrowing events from a uniquely first-person perspective.
