08.20: Manson: The Life and Times of Charles Manson
2013-07-10 23:33:40| Powells Books Events Calendar
More than 40 years ago, Charles Manson and his mostly female commune killed nine people, among them the pregnant actress Sharon Tate. It was the culmination of a criminal career that author Jeff Guinn traces back to Manson's childhood. Guinn interviewed Manson's sister and cousin, neither of whom had ever previously cooperated with an author. Childhood friends, cell mates, and even some members of the Manson Family have provided new information about Manson's life. Manson: The Life and Times of Charles Manson (Simon & Schuster) puts the killer in the context of his times — the late sixties, an era of race riots and street protests when authority in all its forms was under siege.
