In a book published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the Bay of Pigs invasion, the author draws on recently released CIA information to shed new light on the botched operation, which was an embarrassment to JFK and the United States. Rasenberger's father, an attorny, worked with JFK to secure the release of men held prisoner in Cuba.
