Chappaquiddick
"An achievement of reportorial diligence, this book tells a story that the most imaginative crime novelist would have been hard put to invent. It is a tale of death, intrigue, obstruction of justice, corruption and politics." —People Magazine A young woman leaves a party with a wealthy U.S. senator. The next morning her body is discovered in his car at the bottom of a pond. This is the damning true story of the death of campaign strategist Mary Jo Kopechne at Chappaquiddick and of the senator—37-year-old Senator Ted Kennedy—who left her trapped underwater while he returned to his hotel, slept, and made phone calls to associates. It is the story of a powerful, privileged American man wh...
Chappaquiddick
"An achievement of reportorial diligence, this book tells a story that the most imaginative crime novelist would have been hard put to invent. It is a tale of death, intrigue, obstruction of justice, corruption and politics. It is also one view of why Sen. Edward M. Kennedy was never indicted in connection with Mary Jo Kopechne's death in 1969. Damore spent more than four years on the book and is the first writer to gain access to the state police investigation reports and confidential records of the Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles. Damore, who has written four other books and covered the Chappaquiddick incident as a Cape Cod News reporter, also found a crack in Kennedy's stonewalli...
Senatorial Privilege
About the alleged police cover-up of the fatal road accident involving Senator Edward Kennedy in 1969.
Senatorial Privilege
An eye-opening account of how Ted Kennedy was able to put himself above the law and how the death of Mary Jo Kopechne was trivialized by the rush to protect Kennedy's career and cover-up the facts about the accident at Chappaquiddick.
In His Garden
From the author of the #1 bestseller Senatorial Privilege comes this shocking, true story of the crimes, investigation, and trial of Antone Costa, the Cape Cod killer. The eventual discovery of the four horribly mutilated bodies buried in a secret place in the woods that the grisly serial killer called "his garden", and the subsequent trial seized the attention of the nation and will keep readers riveted as well.
The "crime" of Dorothy Sheridan
When Christian Scientist Dorothy Sheridan's daughter died of what the medical examiner termed "an unnecessary death", Sheridan was accused of killing her own child. Damore recreates the sensational courtroom battle that pitted a smart constitutional lawyer against the full powers of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Fine.
Spy
Smart. Funny. Fearless."It's pretty safe to say that Spy was the most influential magazine of the 1980s. It might have remade New York's cultural landscape; it definitely changed the whole tone of magazine journalism. It was cruel, brilliant, beautifully written and perfectly designed, and feared by all. There's no magazine I know of that's so continually referenced, held up as a benchmark, and whose demise is so lamented" --Dave Eggers. "It's a piece of garbage" --Donald Trump.
The Bridge at Chappaquiddick
And on its surface, the Chappaquiddick Incident (as it has infamously become known) was a simple but tragic traffic accident. However, its political fallout caused it to become the most speculated-upon car accident until Princess Diana's fatal ride, some 28 years later: Was Kennedy drunk? Was he trying to conceal an affair by deliberately killing Kopechne? Why did he wait for so long before reporting the accident? And who else was involved? Olsen tells the tale with as much detail as was made available to him. Though there is apparently only a single living eye-witness to the accident (Kennedy himself, who described having the "sensation of drowning" on live television a week later), Olsen tracks down the incongruous statements made by others who were indirectly involved... and comes to a potential conclusion which would be difficult to refute. There is no legal evidence of this conclusion, of course, but his alternate explanation of events turns much of the circumstantial evidence into a logic-of-sorts.
