Erik Larson Synopsis: The non-fiction book Lethal Passage by Erik Larson begins with an account of a crime that is by now almost commonplace: on December 16, 1988, sixteen-year-old Nicholas Elliot walked into his Virginia high school with a Cobray M-11/9 and several hundred rounds of ammunition tucked in his backpack. By day’s end, he had killed one teacher and severely wounded another. This book explains how a disturbed teenager was able to buy a weapon advertised as “the gun that made the eighties roar.” In so doing, he not only illuminates America’s gun culture — its manufacturers, dealers, buffs, and propagandists — but also offers concrete solutions to a national epidemic of death by firearm. The result is a book that can — and should — save lives, and that has already become an essential text in the gun-control debate.
LOVED Devil in the White City, only slightly less would be Dead Wake… took only a few pages to totally forget they were NON-fiction… unfathomable research… Mr. Larson supports Mr. Twain’s assertion that “Truth is stranger than fiction.”
