520 |a 1993: David Koresh and a band of heavily armed evangelical Christians took on the might of the US government. A two-month siege of their compound in Waco, Texas, ended in a firefight that killed seventy-six, including twenty-five children. Cook gives readers a taste of Koresh's deadly charisma and takes us behind the scenes at the Branch Davidians' compound, where "the new Christ" turned his followers into servants and sired seventeen children by a dozen "wives." Waco drew the battle lines for American extremists, and here Cook draws a straight line from Waco's ashes to the January 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol-- and insurrections yet to come. -- adapted from Amazon.com
