That's wild that you actually knew one of the people who died, the whole thing was so tragic. And Helter Skelter was still really good, it just almost felt like reading the Little Red Hen ("I planted the wheat, I harvested the wheat, I ground the grain, I baked the bread") Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16161977012468397219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891836148334813580.post-48833469713858623442018-03-15T13:45:02.549-07:002018-03-15T13:45:02.549-07:00I just checked The Road to Jonestown out of the li...I just checked The Road to Jonestown out of the library which is about the Jonestown massacre. I once knew Don Harris, who was an NBC reporter on the trip and was killed on the runway. I believe that event was where the term "drank the Kool-Aid" came from. I read Helter Skelter when it first came out and found it fascinating, but in those days didn't pick up on Bugliosi's grandstanding.
