Publisher's summary

What really happened to TWA 800? On the 20th anniversary of the crash, author Jack Cashill reveals shocking new evidence.

TWA Flight 800 crashed into the Atlantic shortly after takeoff from JFK Airport on July 17, 1996, killing all 230 passengers onboard. Although initial reports suggested a terrorist attack, FBI and NTSB investigators blamed a fuel-tank explosion. But skeptics have long questioned the official story, and new evidence has surfaced that suggests a widespread conspiracy.

In TWA 800, historian Jack Cashill introduces new documents and testimonies that reveal the shocking true chain of events, from the disastrous crash to the high-level decision to create a cover story and the attempts to silence anyone who dared speak the truth.

not for the aluminum foil hat crowd.

This is interesting. It sounds like a career chaging snafu that could have cost Clinton his job. It was Bengazi before Begazi.

Thinly veiled partisan attack book

I agree with most of the research and conclusions regarding TWA800. I have never believed the fuel tank explosion story. However, it became apparent this is just a republican attack ad in book form, and that distracted from the legitimate investigation. Look at when it was released. This was a book to bash the Clinton's, disguised as an investigation into TWA 800. Even if I agree with the general gist of the story, and I am no big fan of the Clinton's, I got tired of the references to Benghazi and other tired Clinton attacks.

Explains a lot

So fbi is covering up stuff. Sounds like 2018. I don’t trust them anymore. Just look at stories we see about the director of the fbi Leaking information because of politics. Go back to whitewash of JFK assassination. Sad.

Compelling,not surprising

I'm shocked by some of the other reviews but there are establishment spooks everywhere. Don't pay attention to the usual cannards like "conspiacy crap" or comically "right wing dog whistles". The CIA/FBI are not only filled with spineless worms and psychopathic jarheads, but are masters of propaganda and mind control, Case in point, to steer the public perception that anything in government conspiracy realm or antiestablishment is now "right wing propaganda", absurd.
I found this book to be unbiased though slightly partisan. Rather, mostly on the side of the 700+ eyewitnesses which the recent review pile on seems to completely disregard.
They found the evidence but hid or destroyed it.
I would think that after all these years of uncovering their lies, things would get better. Nope. Doubled down, quadrupled down on media lies and the people overall are more clueless than ever.
The book is worth a read for those who already know the score but it's cage rattling and triggering to ultra partisan, ultra establishment and those who've never questioned the legacy media in their lives.

Far More Than Another Anti-Clinton Screed

What made the experience of listening to TWA 800 the most enjoyable?

The way Cashill packs an incredible amount of information into an enjoyable narrative.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jack Cashill. He takes the listener along on the journey of his investigation of TWA 800 and his mostly unsuccessful attempts to try to bring the story to the elite media. Cashill and I probably don't agree on much politically but he has my highest regard.

What about Richard Ferrone’s performance did you like?

That he didn't get in the way of Cashill's narrative too much and didn't mispronounce many words. As I think another reviewer said his style is a little too close to that of Robert Stack in his Unsolved Mysteries days. This comes off as a little cheesy but overall it didn't distract me too much. He also mispronounces the last name of Clinton official Jaime Gorelick, whose name comes up a lot.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I had recently watched the excellent documentary "TWA Flight 800" and wanted to read a book on the subject. This was perfect. I found the information credible and well presented. I came away convinced. I used to be a huge skeptic about conspiracy theories. Now I don't even like to use that term because it discourages rational thought. If Cashill is right, which I believe he is, we cannot rely on our press, or our government, to give us accurate information about the most significant events of our times. Some of you might think that's obvious but this book really made that sink in for me.

Any additional comments?

I held off getting this one for a while because some of the reviews suggested that Cashill got a little carried away with the anti-Clinton rhetoric. One even charged that this was just another right wing election year polemic, like the kind Roger Stone has been putting out. As a man of the left I assure you it is not. It is possible the publisher thought the book would have added relevance with Hillary running but Cashill has been on this story for decades and is one of the leading independent researchers on the subject. Yes he does mention Benghazi, and compares the cover-up to TWA 800, but it's really for only a few paragraphs. You can easily skip them if you can't stand to read another word about Benghazi. I do think Cashill gives undo weight to the fact that this happened during the Bill Clinton presidency. I think most presidents would have tried to cover up this incident, especially in an election year.

So many eye witnessess...

I always thought this was a missile and have followed this story from the beginning so I was familiar with most of the material presented. This story provides great details about what might have happened but not conclusive and sadly, likely we never will know for sure. Great narrator.
