Publisher's Summary:
A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, listeners can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. In 1969, things were looking up for one of Hollywood's most marketable actresses. After appearing as a model in fashion magazines and having bit parts on shows during the early part of the decade, Sharon Tate was a star in the making. That summer, she was pregnant with her first child by director Roman Polanski, who had just recently become her husband, and a few months earlier, she had just finished filming The Thirteen Chairs, co-starring Orson Welles. Tragically, superstardom would never come, and even today, over 45 years later, most details of Sharon's life and career are completely overlooked by people who continue to be morbidly curious about her murder at the hands of the Manson Family on August 9, 1969. The murders committed by Charlie Manson's followers transfixed America, and Tate has been inextricably linked to one of 20th century America's most notorious criminals.

Heart Rendering
A very clear and concise account of an American tragedy. I appreciated the factual tone that didn't glorify the violenc.
Not a lot of new information here but nice to have regardless
Very short book on Sharon. Not a lot of new information here but nice to have regardless.
Five Stars
AWESOME
Informative, messed up, but informative
Iâve heard about the Manson murders all my life but never really knew the first thing about them other than Manson is constantly up for parole and the media tells us he was a mass murderer and cult leader. This book gave me clarity on the issue with aggrandizing a killer.
Nicely written and quite informative.
