About This Item
Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1990. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Marine cloth boards. Red and white lettering to spine. Bright red endpapers. 152 pp. with notes and index. Clean, tight, bright. This book focuses on the life of John W. Hinckley, Jr. and what led up to his ultimate assassination attempt of President Reagan. Beginning with Hinckley's privileged but overprotected childhood through his increasingly alienated young adulthood to the minute-by-minute events of the day of the assassination. Clark examines the events of the trial and on to Hinckley's confinement to the mental hospital. He concludes by discussing several instances in which Hinckley might have been recognized by qualified professionals as a truly dangerous person. (front flap)
