His many friends included Frank Sinatra and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger. For a few years, he was Jimmy Hoffa's right-hand man--the two fell out after the Kennedy assassination, which Hoffa celebrated and Gibbons mourned. Exploring his day-to-day work, the author reveals the full story of Gibbons' secret effort with Kissinger and Hoffa to bring an end to the Vietnam War.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gordon Burnside\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1476674930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476674933\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/09\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.80w x 0.80d","brand":"Gordon Burnside","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44652352831743,"sku":"9781476674933","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e9f600f7-8f67-40e5-b8fa-4a4801007d2a.jpg?v=1704215686","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/harold-gibbons-gordon-burnside-9781476674933","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
