True Hollywood Story: The Last Days of Sharon Tate. So I can't blame any writer for using it. I think what is needed the most is a real live investigative journalist questioning him further...starshiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13207679706874165027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720104317349404654.post-32562724891602404862010-03-12T11:13:45.557-07:002010-03-12T11:13:45.557-07:00Sorry, Pristash, for my blog being so complicated ...Sorry, Pristash, for my blog being so complicated for you. I thought I had it fairly straight forward. You click on the Thought Bubble at the bottom of each post to comment. Other blogs have Thought Bubbles and I abhor words and prefer pics as link buttons, sooo hence the Thought Bubbles. Just email me anytime at burb2872@yahoo.com if you have any further probs...<br /><br />As per the Wells book, and others like them...<br /><br />I have nothing against third parties writing books but I DO have everything against people who just spew shit with no basis for the spewing...<br /><br />Maybe because of the type of people this case attracts, that you end up with writers who have a lower academic grasp of proper documentary writing, source handling, etc., maybe the cause of so much tripe out there written about this Family and Manson in particular.<br /><br />Many people who may be proponents of The Family and Charlie may have reasons to dislike The Bug BUT The Bug sites his sources and you CAN verify those sources as being legit.<br /><br />You may consider me an isolationist when it comes to me refusing to read these type of bio books but I am choosy because of this very risk, that you WILL read crap that only further muddies the waters and gives no information as to the validity of that info.<br /><br />I can tell you this: ANY person's "story" told a quarter of a century later WILL be fraught with errors and be interjected with exaggerations, as is the case of Will's story today. Such a phenomenon occurs in all famous cases, with witnesses, just look at the JFK assassination.<br /><br />In MY opinion, there was no "van", Will never said those things to ANYONE, and that entire story is bogus. Period. Will, nor any biographer who sites Will, NEVER gives any corroborative evidence to said, so until I see some, it's all just a laugh to me.<br /><br />Thank-you, Pristash, for letting the viewers know about this book, so they can make their own decisions!!!B.J.

It reads pretty well, offers a good narrative and fills in where a lot of other books do not. BUT, how accurate is it? Hard to tell...he seems to take everything that is out there and place it in the narrative, having it both ways. For instance, when writing of Garretson, he begins with how WG got a ride down to the Sunset Strip with people in the 'van' who said he proabably shouldn't return, then tells what he heard as the murders take place. It is only much later that he says something like, "WG for whatever reason, fai;ed to tell the authorities all he observed and it wasn't until some 25 years later that his full story came out..."<br /><br />Also, Wells writes how Sadie used the towel to write PIG on the dor, then threw the towel back into the living room where it landed atop Jay Sebring's head. Then later on, goes into Manson returning to Cielo Drive, probbaly with Clem and Bruce and moving the bodies around, then tucking said towel neatly under the noose around Jay's neck, etc...<br /><br />Something which I learned which explains alot is that the house commonly refereed to as Harold True's house was really a rental with a lot of college students living in it...hence the parties that occurred which annoyed the LaBiancas and other neighbors...and could also explain how LK partied there but may have never met Manson or others there.<br /><br />And there are a lot of typos and other errors too. He lists quite a few sources, but doesn't indicate who was a source for what, etc.starshiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13207679706874165027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7720104317349404654.post-66267627090040117072010-03-11T12:41:28.174-07:002010-03-11T12:41:28.174-07:00Could you please expound a wee bit Pristash.
