Book Reviews of American Terrorist: Timothy McVeigh and the Oklahoma City Bombing

Everything an ordinary person could possibly want to know about this notorious figure. It is written in journalistic prose that is easy to read. According this book, McVeigh read a book a week in the two years before his execution. The authors imply this is a lot, but I imagine if you are a PBS-type, you read a book a week though you have less time on your hands than a prisoner on death row.

Great insight into why the Oklahoma City Bombing happened, and the family of Timothy McVeigh.

This book was a fascinating look in inside the mind of a terrorist. Timothy McVeigh felt like America had bullied him just as it bullied other individuals and entire nations. And he's right.
