Texas attorney Barr McClellan, www.barrmcclellan.com, has just published a new book, \"Blood, Money & Power\", published by Hannover House, www.hannoverhouse.com, which accuses LBJ of complicity in his predecessor, JKF's assassination. Ironically, Barr is the father of Scott McClellan, the current White House press secretary, and Mark, the head of the FDA.

\"In 'Blood, Money and Power' Barr McClellan offers new insights into the dark and ruthless forces that propelled Lyndon Baines Johnson into the highest office in the land.\", writes Nigel Turner, the Brit who started the television series, \"The Men Who Killed Kennedy\" which appears regularly on the History and Discovery channels.

\"His arch villain is Texan attorney Edward A Clark. He controlled LBJ's financial, legal and political fortunes for three decades from offices in downtown Austin. He accuses Clark, now deceased, of being the man who personally orchestrated the assassination of JFK when Johnson faced political ruin and possible imprisonment due to past misdeeds.

\"For many this will appear a contentious scenario. Yet McClellan writes from a unique perspective. He was an insider. As a member of the Clark law firm, albeit from 1966 onwards, he was privy to specific conversations and shared confidences with colleagues that convinced him of Clark's principal role in the murder of Kennedy.

\"At the very least this work opens up a wider debate on the alleged complicity of Johnson and his henchmen in the murder of JFK. Barr McClellan 's insider's voice is a valuable addition to those who earnestly seek the truth of what really happened on November 22nd, 1963.\"

Walt Brown, professor of history, editor of the quarterly \"JFK\/Deep Politics\" magazine, a noted researcher with a doctorate in history from Notre Dame, and author of numerous books on the assassination, says

\"I've also had the opportunity to read Barr McClellan's manuscript, in which he describes how he served as personal attorney to Ed Clark who served as the intermediary between Lyndon Johnson and all of his myriad political contretemps. One, of course, was JFK, and this book takes the reader through the labyrinth of Dallas and puts LBJ center-stage, and it is hard not to read the work and not shout, 'Guilty as hell!!'\"
