| Summary |
The gruesome murders of the actress Sharon Tate, her unborn child, and four others at the hands of the notorious "Manson family" on August 9, 1969 rocked the nation. The atrocities, the trial and the subsequent conviction of Charles Manson and his followers spawned a media frenzy--a defining moment in an era otherwise associated with peace, love and understanding. Yet while this crime left an indelible mark on society's consciousness, it was an even more shattering personal tragedy for Sharon's loving family. Now, after nearly forty years, their story is finally revealed. Compiled by close family friend Alisa Statman and Sharon's niece Brie Tate, Restless Souls draws on unpublished material including interviews with the Tates, personal letters, tape recordings, home movies, public interviews, private journals, and official documents to provide a four-decade, three-generation memoir of crime and punishment, anguish and hope, rage and love.--From publisher description. |
