Book Reviews of The Family
Book Review: THE book on the manson family murders
Summary: 5 Stars
a much, much better book than bugliosi's. and ed sanders (formerly of the fugs) has no dog in the fight...his style is uber-hip and there is much much more to the story of the manson family, and their celebrity friends and their life style than bugliosi would have one believe. and, more to the murders also. a great read...for the INSIDE story.
Summary of The Family
In August of 1969, during two bloody evenings of paranoid, psychedelic savagery, Charles Manson and his dystopic communal family helped to wreck the dreams of the Love Generation. At least nine people were murdered, among them Sharon Tate, the young, beautiful, pregnant, actress and wife of Roman Polanski. Ed Sanders' unnerving and detailed look at the horror dealt by Manson and his followers is a classic of the true-crime genre. The Family was originally published in 1971 and remains the most meticulously researched account of the most notorious murders of the 1960s. Using firsthand accounts from some of the family's infamous members, including the wizard himself, Sanders examines not only the origins and legacy of Manson and his family, but also the mysteries that persist. Completely revised and updated, this edition features 25 harrowing black and white photos from the investigation. "One of the best-researched, best-written, thoroughly-constructed, and eminently significant books of our times.. A masterpiece."-Boston PhoenixCriminology Books
