Paperback. The truth behind the rage of an American sports legend. O.J. Simpson, idolised, beloved, lionised in the Football Hall of Fame. The very manifestation of a black male making it to the top of the American Dream. Then - the murder of Nicole Simpson and her male friend, the televised flight of a fugitive in a white bronco flanked by California Highway Patrol in pursuit - and suddenly OJ is the prime suspect in a hideous crime - double murder. This is a painfully detailed and, at the time, up-to-the-minute report on this complex case, which embodied the rise and fall of a man who fell harder, and from a loftier height, that any important sports figure in the previous century. America watched the court proceedings on television, often missing the undertones and rammifications. This book was designed to provide a tool to fill in the holes. To further comprehension of what was going on before the country's very eyes. Illus. 215pp. trade size softcover. From the library of true-crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Vg.
