Charles Manson Family in Death Valley

Numerous news reports, newspaper and magazine articles, and books have been written about the Manson family's activities in the '60s and '70s. But none have been told about their lives in Death Valley. August 2024 is the fifty-fifth anniversary of the Tate-LaBianca killings, and they are still being talked about. This book goes a little bit into the psychological reasons why average American kids would leave home and join a "family" like the Mansons. I worked with the Indian Tribe in Death Valley and the Death Valley Chamber of Commerce, where I gained extensive knowledge of the area. So it seemed natural to write a book about it.
