This book is suppose to be about Sara Jane Moore, who tried to shoot President Gerald Ford in the 1970s. And in a way it is, but there are a lot of details regarding the different groups that were in the Bay Area during this timeframe. Including the kidnapping of Patty Hearst. If you are looking for a book that skims the issue and has a lot of filler, then this is the book for you. If you are looking for something more in-depth, then you'll want to look elsewhere. Otherwise, this book is a quick read and a bit interesting in places. Especially if you live or have lived in the San Francisco Bay Area.
