- Summary
- Offers a revelatory perspective on what happened, and why, when over 900 followers of the People's Temple religious movement committed suicide in 1978. Piecing together information from interviews with former group members, archives, and diaries and letters of those who died there, the author describes the women leaders as educated political activists who were passionately committed to achieving social justice through communal life. She puts human faces on the events, confronting theoretical religious questions such as how worthy utopian ideals come to meet such tragic and misguided ends.
