Book Reviews of The Family
Book Review: Insightful, great investigative read.
Summary: 5 Stars
when i saw that he had consulted with famed investigator Maury Terry of the master work "The ultimate evil" I instantly knew this book had tremendous value. And I was correct. The back ground and following the tentacles of this case that reach around the country, and having the courage to follow up the satanic cult angle was well as the scientology and mind control aspect gave me so much more than i hope for. This is a must read with the book "the ultimate evil" so much is contained in Maury's book that sheds much light on the significance of the satanic cult aspect. This case is far from closed. It is obvious to me that behind the scenes it is still being investigated.
On his writing style. I believe it was perfect for this. I "get" him and much of the code language he uses to hint at things only insiders know. I do believe has has much more information on this subject than he can disclose, and he even admits it if you read closely.
How some could rate this book so below an all star is beyond my understanding.
Highly recommended book.
Thanks Ed. I appreciate the effort and hope you continue to follow up and put out new editions as more information becomes available to publish publicly.
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 PhoenixMurder & Mayhem Books
