The Charles Manson Murder Trial: A Headline Court Case

128 pp. | Enslow | October, 2004 | Library ISBN 0-7660-2167-X $26.60
(4) YA Headline Court Cases series. The awkwardly titled book about Amadou Diallo capably recounts the 1999 shooting of an unarmed black man by four white police officers, summarizes the prosecution and defense cases, and explains the verdict's impact on race relations in New York City. Manson, which also examines a notorious trial, feels rushed because of the complexity of the subject and its many participants. Black-and-white photos appear intermittently. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
Reviewer: Peter D. Sieruta
