Rating: 4 stars
Summary: the life of
Review: this book was a good source of learning about charles manson and what his childhood was like and how he devoleped into the man he now is. after reading this book i felt bad for him and had nothing to hold against him, his life was hard from the day he was born and if you look at his life in a psychologists point of view you can easily point out the warning signs he showed throughout his childhood and teen years. if you really despise this man i think you should read this book and then make your opinion on him.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Amazing is all I can say about this book
Review: This book was by far the best book that I have ever read in my life. After having read Helter Skelter and other books about Manson I was amazed at how different Manson's view point was. It is so exciting to be able to get into the mind of Charles Manson and actually see his side of the story. Charles Manson is a very interesting person and this book really helps you to understand him.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Insane? or just drugged up?
Review: This was an excellent book. A completely different story, however, to that which you will find in Helter Skelter. Which version you belive, is up to you but i would recommend reading both to get a fuller picture. If you want to be submerged in the feeling and freedom of the sixties and a good build up to, atleast Mansons version of, why these terrible murders happened read this book. Cross reference it with Helter Skelter for a more sober view of events and a totally different verdict of why the members of mansons 'group' chose to murder.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Insane? or just drugged up?
Review: To the people who have not yet read Manson in his own words, I urge you to purchase a copy and to be prepared.
I read this book years ago, and knowing of Charles Manson,what he had done and how,well after opening the book,I could not put it down. I mean literally, against my will,Manson capturing my mind through his words.An absolute bewildered and somewhat a Magickal book in it's own rite, had me instantly coming of a vast likeness to him. A pure,evil genius having had attained a power so high of a different consciousness and level,using this power which can be attained by all,using it for death,evil.A man I think from memory spending all of his life in institutions had grown an hatred for mankind if you will.
The Swaastika between his eyes symbolising power,tattooed on his forehead,displaying a self created genius of evil.
A must read and a most uncanny at that.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: MANSON HATES EMMONS.
Review: Watch Charlie on video in an interview and hear for yourself him say,

"Emmons took his life, and put that in my book..then he took my life, and wrote a second book with his name on it and said it was his life..so he's milked you for two books.. he's a good crook."

The way Charlie himself talks about the book indicates that less than 1 percent is factual.




Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Manson... in someone else's words
Review: While this is a fairly well written book anyone that has ever been connected to Manson, Manson's followers, or the Manson case has said there was no way that Charles Manson had ANYTHING to do with this book.

First of all, Manson, while speaking makes NO sense whatsoever.

Secondly, If anyone has ever seen Manson's written word, not only does it not make any sense, but it's not legible.

Third, The "frame" that the wording is in, does not sound like anything I have ever seen, read, or heard from Manson.

Fourth, Manson himself has denied having anything to do with this book since it was being written, through publication, through all the years since.

Some of the information in this book is factual, based upon trial transcripts, and conversations that are documented elsewhere. However the words that are attributed to Manson, in my opinion were the author's own words. Not a bad read, but not something I would recommend to someone looking for the 'truth'.
