In November of 1963 the assassin Lee Harvey Oswald killed President John F. Kennedy. You might wonder, how did this guy turn into somebody who could do such a thing? Oswald's father died before he was born. He lacked a father figure for most of his life. His mother, Marguerite Oswald, was a difficult person. But she coddled her youngest son. How did her behavior and outlook on life shape the man who became this notorious individual? In her new book Deanne Stillman does a little digging into the Oswalds. What she found out isn't very pretty.
