Description

At 9:02 A.M. on April 19, 1995, in the largest terrorist act ever perpetrated on American soil, the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Office Building in Oklahoma City was destroyed by the explosion of a homemade truck bomb. One hundred and sixty-eight people -- including nineteen children -- were killed by the blast, and more than five hundred others were injured. Timothy J. McVeigh, an antigovernment activist, was tried and convicted of the bombing. But to Americans everywhere, the story has remained a mystery, held hostage by McVeigh's refusal to explain or even discuss the event and his involvement.

With this book, that mystery is solved.

American Terrorist will change, unmistakably and permanently, our understanding of the crime. Journalists Lou Michel and Dan Herbeck have been researching the Oklahoma City bombing -- and the Iife of Tim McVeigh -- since the week the tragedy occurred. They have interviewed more than one hundred and fifty people from every stage of McVeigh's life, from his childhood friends to the psychiatrist hired by the defense team to examine him before his trial. They have garnered the cooperation of McVeigh's father, mother, and sister Jennifer, and gained exclusive access to previously unpublished family photographs and personal effects. And, in April 1999, Michel and Herbeck secured an extraordinary coup: in more than seventy-five hours of interviews, they persuaded Timothy McVeigh to give the first complete, candid, no-holds-barred account of his story -- an account, given with no compensation or right of approval, that American Terrorist sheds light on every aspect of McVeigh's life. It describes his relationship with Terry Nichols and Michael Fortier and the consuming distrust of the government shared by the three. And in its pages every detail of the bombing itself is reconstructed, from the origins of the plot to the moment of detonation and McVeigh's aborted getaway. American Terrorist puts to rest conspiracy theories that have previously gone unresolved. It clarifies the role and responsibility of every person who has been implicated in the plan. And it explains, thoroughly and definitively, how a decorated war hero from rural New York State became the worst mass murderer in the nation's history.

At once a powerful work of journalism and a uniquely American story, American Terrorist wiII help bring closure, once and for all, to a wound left too long open in our national psyche.

Summary: "American Terrorist: Timothy McVeigh & the Oklahoma City Bombing"

If you want more details about what drove Timothy McVeigh to perform such a heinous act, this would be a good book to read. It chronicles his life from a child all the way through the bombing and illustrates why he was so driven in his mission. It was easy to read and took a neutral position through most of the book.

Summary: "Difficult to Put Down"

Definitely agree with everyone who says not to read this book looking for any kind of closure. I expected it to be unsettling and really just wanted a broader perspective.

What I find interesting is how so many people are quick to apply the labels "psychopath" or "sociopath" which translate in clinical settings to Antisocial Personality Disorder. But I don't see in McVeigh many of the diagnostic markers of APD usually present before age 18 (i.e. animal cruelty, legal trouble, irreverence to authority, manipulating people for pleasure).

What I see is more of a combination of paranoid traits (fear of an impending government takeover; constant vigilance in the event of some all-out war between the government and the people; the belief that significant events are rooted in conspiracies) and narcissistic traits (the constant talk about being significant in history; the seeming belief that one is above the rules; a lack of empathy).

I found this book pretty difficult to put down and I engaged with it almost immediately. Just don't expect to feel any better or get any clarity; I don't think that's the purpose of the book.

Summary: "Oklahoma Bombing Disaster"

Timothy McVeigh was an average child growing up in rural America. An outstanding soldier who fought for his Country with no reservations. Then his mind changed regarding the US Government and the deletion of individual rights. The author did a great job describing the actual bombing event, and the subsequent trial. You could feel nothing but sympathy for Bill McVeigh, Timothy's father. A great, fast read. If you are interested in how a lot of the militant groups are thinking in this Country, this will give some insight.

Summary: "There but for fortune, go you or I"

Best organized book on the fortune and misfortune insights and lives of Timothy McVeigh. How and where he met his now infamous friends. How plans were formed.

Some of the details are a little freaky as I come from a different era yet I read many of the same books and watched the same movies. Even had many similar experiences in the army even though it was a different MOS and locations. I was in armed recon.

The book is well written by Lou Michel and Dan Herbeck, staff reporters for the Buffalo News. I could tell occasionally that the writers were writing about things that they did not experience themselves.

This is one book that should not be overlooked if you want to be culturally literate.

Summary: "Great Book!"

This was a great book that allowed the reader to get into the mind of an American terrorist. The authors were precise and shared a great deal of information about Timothy McVeigh and his mindset throughout his childhood and adult years. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about what caused Tim McVeigh to bomb the government building in Oklahoma City or anyone curious about the mindset of a terrorist.
