Through the Freedom of Information Act, author James Reston, Jr. obtained more than 800 hours of tape recordings made in the jungle. Reston chronicles the descent into madness of the cult leader, the Reverend Jim Jones. How could this have happened and why? Who was Jim Jones and what were his techniques? What was the shape of his descent into barbarism in the jungle? Who were his followers and what was the nature of their choice, if any, when Jones proposed that they all die together? - Publisher.

Thought-provoking literary, philosophical and spiritual quotations punctuate the intriguing images. Together, the images and authoritative text highlight the interplay between the real and the imagined, revealing how the real has fed our fears and hopes and informed our imagination - and conversely, how our imagination has depicted the esoteric, the abject and the unknown"--Publisher's description.
