In this superb cultural history, John R. Hall presents a reasoned
analysis of the meaning of Jonestown--why it happened and how it is
tied to our history as a nation, our ideals, our practices, and the

exploring how much of what transpired was unique to the group and its
leader and how much can be explained by reference to wider social
processes.
