review 1: Essential reading for those who want to have as much information about the case as possible at hand. Not one detail is glossed over or left out- sometimes a retelling of a short event is summed up with 20 or 30 pages of details.Also has some nice illustrations and a collection of material from Manson himself, including a transcript of the entire 1988 interview for the authors film on the subject.
review 2: The best of the books I have read about Manson.Most other authors seemed primarily concerned with making money (Bugliosi, Sanders, etc) or fell into the trap of using sensationalism even though their original works were, before editing, probably fairly good (Marynick, Emmons.)Schreck seems to have remained completely academic in this work, and perhaps because... more he chose not to use a large scale publisher, managed to protect it from unnecessary fiction designed to make the work "exciting" (inaccurate.) less
