### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A book that doesn't come off as trying to push a reader to one side. It presents unpopular info to be considered.
  

*by T***3 on Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2017*

Yes there are serious editing issues with spelling and grammar but still an interesting read for people into this subject. One should always keep in mind that if they were not there then they can never know for sure so they should not get invested farther then that. I think there are more questions then answers presented in this book which is also true to what is actually known. I don't know that much of it has "new" ideas. It seems to present doubt, and questions the real reasons for what happened and the extent to who and how many people were actually involved. I didn't find it to try to explain or convince the reader of anything except that one should keep an open mind to what they are told is fact having not been a participant or spectator of the actual events. People who seem to have hatred of Manson and those involved with him seem scarier to me then Manson and his "followers" do. Especially those people who have no actual connection to anything that is attributed to the "Family". I hope those people can peace in themselves. I don't condone what happened or have sympathy for those who confessed to their involvement however I find the  prosecution aspect of these events to be the most interesting aspect of this saga and this book does a great job at making one take into account that what we are told is almost never "the whole truth and nothing but the truth".

    The Shadow Over Santa Susana
  

*by J***H on Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2013*

The Shadow Over Santa Susana by author Adam Gorightly is an account of the Manson family and their history from inception to arrest for the murders during the summer of 1969. I have found this book to be very interesting since it offers some additional information that other accounts lack. The book does contain some typos which are not numerous, but leaves one to wounder if it could have been better reviewed and corrected. This book does contain numerous photos of family members and others that were affiliated with the family. These photos contribute greatly to the information regarding the family and Charles Manson. However, the photos do not contain captions with descriptions of the images presented. One has to flip to the back of the book where a list of photos is present with each photo described. This is not a major flaw but renders this book somewhat unique with the slight inconvenience of having to look up the description of the photos. As I mentioned this book contains new information regarding Manson's use of mind control and affiliation with satanic cults. Furthermore,the book contains several chapters related to conspiracy theories surrounding the family and the murders. If you are a reader that likes to connect unrelated curcumstances and coincidences into a more global plot then this part of the book is for you. Quite a few orginizations and assassins are mentioned from the likes of government organizations (MK-ULTRA) that were tasked to clandestinely destroy the hippie movement to Oswald, Surhan Surhan, et al. I believe this book is a god addition for anyone wanting to read more about Cahrles Manson and the family.

    Please Don't Use As Your Sole Source on the Tate LaBianca Murders And/or  Manson Family
  

*by N***X on Reviewed in the United States on November 15, 2022*

This is a reasonable overview of the Family and the Murders, pulling heavily from the two main published records of the case: "The Family" by Ed Sanders and "Helter Skelter" by Vincent Bugliosi. He even references Ed Sanders original edition of his book that suggested a strong relationship between the Family and a satanic group operating in Southern California at the time. There are also a number of interesting photos that haven't been as widely displayed as the ones in Helter Skelter.However, in spite of these good things going for it, the editorial work is quite lacking. Confusing sentences, poor grammar, and while the photos were quite interesting, and in some cases quite gruesome, overall they were of poor quality. That might have been ok, if this was just supposed to be an overview of one of the most notorious crimes of the 20th century, but it's supposed to be an oversized coffee table book for the true crime aficionado.Finally, after starting out as a pretty standard overview of the case it goes off on some pretty wild conspiracy theories. I'm not saying there's no there there, but I think if you're going to present these ideas MkUltra, Cointelpro, Son of Sam connections, etc. You need to provide a bit more background evidence. So that's why I don't want this book to be your one source of information about the case. Look through the bibliography to find a number of good solid sources of information, and a few I might question, but take your pick and expand your knowledge base.
