Hunt's family seemed to say he was drugged up as well, on his death bed, not too coherent and may have been led on in what he said.

Hunt actually wrote a number of spy novels,  I read one of them. This shows he had a creative mind.



Was the book any good?

Only the dumbest, most desparate CTers believe that Hunt deathbed nonsense. Even conspiracy sites like JFKFacts and Mary Ferrell pretty much trash it.

Jerry, I agree. What would-be assassin has himself photographed holding both murder weapons and commie lit 8 months before ....

Consider the source of that timing==Marina.
They could have been produced 3 weeks before the assassination for all we really know.

Why would Oswald have wanted pictures? Because he was a BIG man in his own estimation. When he looked in the mirror he saw a hero.

Notoriety? Exactly what Oswald hoped for except Oswald thought it would be fame. Actually, he did achieve fame with some people whereas I see it as downright dog act infamy.
Speculation

A nut like Oswald.  In addition, at the time the BY photos were taken, Oswald had no clue that he would be assassinating JFK.  He wouldn't have known that until he found out around Nov. 19 that JFK was visiting Dallas and would pass his place of work.  And do you think Oswald anticipated getting away with this crime? LOL.  Death or arrest was part of the equation in committing that act and Oswald knew it.  It didn't matter how much evidence he left behind.  If he didn't want to pay the price, his only real option was not to commit the crime.

Yes, dime store novels.
