Book Reviews of Dear People: Remembering Jonestown
Book Review: Historical Perspective
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased several books related to Jonestown and the Peoples Temple. This was the first book I read beofre reading the others. This book helped me understand the historical aspects of Jim Jones and the Peoples Temple. The information provided in this book is from the historical archives located in California. Although this is a "history" based book (not a memoir), it helped prepare me to understand and fully appreciate the other books I read on Jim Jones and the Peoples Temple. This is a must read for historical facts!Book Review: The Real Peoples Temple
Summary: 5 Stars
This book provides a rare glimpse into the thoughts of real Peoples Temple members and the words of Jim Jones himself. People tend to forget that these were real people who saw Peoples Temple as an organization that was trying to fix the way racism was controlling America. The documents in this collection are well chosen and well presented and the photos add even more interest to this invaluable source. If you are interested in learning more about Peoples Temple, this is a must buy.Book Review: fascinating
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading Seductive Poison, a powerful insider's look into the organization, I wanted to get another perspective. Read in conjunction, these two books allow us to peer inside the mind and thoughts of those innocent folks who believed they were joining something good and meaningful.
I highly recommend both.
