Description
1927. While the majority of the township of Bath, Michigan, was celebrating a new primary school, local farmer and school board treasurer Andrew P. Kehoe had other plans. Behind his ordinary demeanor was a narcissistic sadist seething with rage, resentment, and paranoia. On May 18 he detonated a set of rigged explosives with the sole purpose of destroying the school and everyone in it. Thirty-eight children and six adults were murdered that morning. Schechter provides an exhaustively researched chronicle of a town forced to comprehend unprecedented carnage, and the triggering of a 'human time bomb' whose act of apocalyptic violence would foreshadow the terrors of the current age. -- adapted from jacket
