My vote goes to Gerald Posner's Case Closed. Not only does the title speak for itself, but the author seems convinced that the reading public consists of a group of monkeys.

I think that any book on the Kennedy assassination is going to be somewhat biased, Case Closed probably just doesn't coalesce with you views on the case. There are good books supporting both sides that one should read to get a good understanding before making a decision...

Call me crazy (and I'm sure someone will) but I think Posner nailed it. You can just call me a monkey, Michael_M.

The original manuscript for Silas Marner should be burned at the next literary convention. I'd be happy to supply the ligher fluid. This book is simply terrible.
