At the subsequent trial of Charles Manson and some members of his 'family' Vincent Bugliosi, whose brilliant and meticulous investigation and prosecution is the subject of this book, revealed the link between Manson's murderous thinking and the then current Beatles' song 'Helter Skelter', whose lyrics prompted Manson to order out his followers, many of them young girls, to butcher without mercy.' ***'A record of cruelty and mania unequalled in its grimness.' Sunday Times ***'A terrible but gripping document of the crazy, hippie-yippie, drug-orientated California society of the Sixties.' Daily Mail (Quote and review quotes from back wrapper). ***First impression of the first UK paperback edition. A fascinating history of the trial of the infamous cult leader Charles Manson, illustrated with some very evocative photographs from the period.
