This is the story the daily press didn't give us. It may be the definitive book about what happened at Mt. Carmel, near Waco, Texas, examined from both sides—the Bureau of Alcohol and Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) and the FBI on one hand, and David Koresh and his followers on the other. Dick J.

The author quotes from Koresh himself to create an extraordinary portrait of a movement, an assault, and an avoidable tragedy.
