A Casebook of Crime, Conspiracy and VIP Victims,
By
This review is from: The Assassination File (Hardcover)
The flash of a dagger - the crack of a pistol or rifle - the blast of a bomb: the impact of political and religious assassinations has reverberated through the centuries. Julius Caesar, Tomas Becket, Abraham Lincoln, Rasputin, Martin Luther King, Gandhi and John F. Kennedy - all have died by an assassin's hand.
Unfortunately the author of this book has decided to go for breadth rather than depth. The 160 odd pages cover more than 200 assassinations, resulting in most of the assassinations getting only one or two paragraphs. This is a great shame because when Bailey does go into detail about some of the really famous assassinations the details prove to be riveting reading. The Assassination File would have been better if only 30 or so assassinations were covered in more detail. |
