American-based foreign correspondent Ivor Davis delivers a gripping "I was there" eyewitness, inside story about the most notorious murder spree of the 20th century.

In Manson Exposed: A Reporter's 50-Year Journey into Madness and Murder, Davis is the brutally honest guide to this true crime horror story.

In this mix of personal memoir, criticism, and investigative journalism, Davis delivers a truly original take on the byzantine case that terrified and mesmerized the nation, including his new conclusion that the Beatles didn't make them do it.

Davis was on the front lines of the story and offers vivid, personal accounts, interviews, and hitherto unknown details from the very beginning right up to the death of the blue collar psycho named Charles Manson.

He charts the tragic inside stories not only of the those murdered but of the long list of collateral damage victims: the rock star, the Oscar-winning director, and the entertainment legends whose lives were also destroyed by Charles Manson and his crackpot acolytes.

I have read many books now on the topic surrounding the case of August 1969. This was quite interesting in the seldom revealed details of several incidents where CM & "family members" were involved. CM's prison details are quite enlightening. I found it well articulated and enjoyed the clear and well paced style of the narrator as well. Not just another "Manson book." 👏 📚

Well Done

It took me a while to get into the book. I was thinking, "why do we need the media point of view? Isn't that basically the standard story?" But soon I realized the value of this edition. There were several things in the book which were new for me. The cool thing is that there is focus on aspects usually not focused upon. The narrator is absolutely perfect.

I really appreciated the focus on "involved" or "other" characters. Also loved the information about Manson's life in prison. This is one of the more recent books, so there are updates which are interesting.

A few times I noticed things that were not exactly correct--or at least were not the way they are usually said to be. But there's no exaggeration in the promos for this book. Davis knows this stuff well and has been involved in it.

Great book. Nice to see from a different view

I've read probably every book on Manson, and this is one of my favorites. Ivor Davis covered the events of 1969 and the subsequent trials, so he has a unique perspective that I really enjoyed.

Narration was superb. You will love this one!

My first thought…. Another Manson book?? However, this authors past of actually being there during the trails, and interviews with family members and experiences make this version of the same old stuff much more palatable with a person touch that could only come off from being there since the beginning. Bravo!!! WAY better than the Guinn book!!! Give it a listen!!

Manson……… again???

I’ve watched and read just about everything on Charles Manson...know matter what people try to come up with...the simple fact is that Mason wanted to be a musician and a lot of people thought he was good enough for the time..but they couldn’t control him when it came to trying to record him... so instead they jerked him around had sex with the women then lied about they’re association when the murders went down...Tex Watson burns a drug dealer then Manson gets the bikers involved for protection from the black panthers the bikers force Bobby to get money back from hinman witch started the copy cat murders to get Bobby out of jail Tate was killed has a copy cat and a chance to get money and scare meltcher...so the Rosemary and Leno were killed as a copy cat and another robbery Manson picked two homes he knew and knew were wealthy....Helter skelter was just some acid trip bull shit...when the copy cat murders didn’t work and members were in jail Manson knew they would talk like Susan did so he hauled ass to the desert...Charles told Tex to kill because he owed him for the bad drug deal but they was also supposed to get money but every time they killed they was so high it just got worse to many drugs the LAPD was just to stupid and hard headed to connect the murders....and that’s why those people died terry meltcher Jacobson Dennis Wilson fucked with Manson to long because they liked the girls and Tex Watson and Bobby Beausoleil should have been left to deal with they’re own shit

This is a good read...it basically sticks to facts not going in to conspiracy theories

great book

The subject is fascinating and while it does contain some original information based on the author’s own interviews, it is largely a rehash of things already written. The author is not objective and his personal biases come through. He tries to paint Manson as the devil and he tries to rehabilitate Polanski as much as possible. What I didn’t like was that a lot of information was repeated. It felt like it was a mishmash of various articles he wrote that were stuck together as a book.

Repetitive

When I began listening to this book it seemed like a great journey however it turned out very dry and repetitive.

I had to give up as I found it a waste of time to continue.

The author praising Roman Polanski over and over was cringe. Especially if you know what he did later in life. Besides it has been described in other books how he was unfaithful to Sharon Tate even on the night she was murdered.
