Seller's Description:
Fine in fine unclipped dust jacket. (Signed by Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme) First Edition / First Printing. Hardcover. SIGNED by the reclusive Fromme on the title page. Provenance available on request. After serving more than 30 years of a life term in prison for the attempted assassination of President Gerald Ford, Fromme was granted parole in July 2008 for good conduct time. 8vo, decorated boards. Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme's memoir provides a unique perspective on her life with Charles Manson from 1967 to 1969, focusing on the daily experiences and ideologies of the so-called Manson Family. Eschewing the sensationalism of the infamous murders, this account offers insight into the group's life as hitch-hiking hippies during the late 1960s, exploring their preparation for an anticipated revolution or societal collapse. Fromme's narrative, which is occasionally poetic and at times preachy with an emphasis on environmental issues, is complemented by contributions from other members such as Sandra 'Blue' Good and Patricia 'Katie' Krenwinkel. The book avoids detailing Fromme's later attempted assassination of President Gerald Ford, instead offering a well-written glimpse into a tumultuous period of American history.
