The Betrayal of America by Vincent Bugliosi
During the course of American history, wrongful events have occurred and certain Americans have stood up and spoken out against these wrongs: Tom Paine, Edward R. Murrow, Daniel Ellsberg. Vincent Bugliosi takes his place in this special pantheon of patriots with his powerful, brilliant, and courageous expose of crime by the highest court in the land. When an article he wrote on this topic appeared in The Nation magazine in February 2001, it drew the largest outpouring of letters and e-mail in the magazine's 136-year history, tapping a deep reservoir of outrage. The original article is now expanded, amended, and backed by amplifications, endnotes, and the relevant Supreme Court documents.Vincent Bugliosi graduated from UCLA Law School in 1964 with a law degree. He won 105 out of 106 felony jury cases throughout his career as a prosecutor for the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office. His most well-known trial was the Charles Manson case, which inspired his best-selling book Helter Skelter. Helter Skelter and his follow-up, Till Death Do Us Part, both received Edgar Allan Poe Awards for best true-crime book of the year. And the Sea Will Tell, his second true-crime book, debuted at #1 on the New York Times hardcover bestseller list, as did Outrage: The Five Reasons Why O.
