DARK, COMPELLING READ INTO THE FULL HISTORY BEHIND THE BRANCH DAVIDIANS
This well-paced book gives you the ENTIRE history of the Branch Davidians from their separation from the Seven Day Adventists to the aftermath of the Waco standoff. It is a dark, heavy read that covers a lot of sensitive topics like child-death, abuse, and gun violence. I will say as -- as someone who has watched quite a few documentaries and video essays on the topic, the book was still able to uncover some new things I didn't previously know.
