Title: Savage Messiah, a true account of a hypnotic man
Product review: This book was absolutely involving. It took me less than 24 hours to read, I could not put it down. The book is about Rock Theriault,and how he managed to use religion to attract and maintain a "family" commune style relationship with several women and men. It describes the abuse and torture the "family members" willingly accepted because of their belief that Rock Theriault was being used by God. It covers polygamy, alcoholism, religion (in a bizare sense) and the deep devotion his followers had for him. I enjoyed the book tremendously and strongly suggest it to anyone interested in cults or weird religious groups.
