Title: And so begins "The FBI Story"
Review: As a child, my parents took me to see the movie "The FBI Story" with Jimmy Stewart. What I remember most about the movie is the beginning, when Jack Graham places a bomb aboard a plane and blows it up. He did this after placing his mother on it and buying her insurance from an airport machine where one could buy life insurance. This story has stuck with me all these years. This book gives us a minute by minute, hour by hour account of that tragedy and allows us into the heads of many people who were involved from the initial bombing to the trial etc. Great book for those of us that remember, vaguely, that "old" movie and the impression the opening scene had on us. A look back into the 50's, when they sold insurance from an airport vending machine, and you could actually go and see your loved ones fly away, with no body searches etc. Kinda creepy.
