PATTY HEARST'S KIDNAPPING IN 1974.

GREAT BOOK,SHE TOLD THE SIDE OF A SCARE HUMANBEING,THAT THE PRESS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT WOUNDN'T TELL THE PEOPLE,

Best Mainstream Critique of the Left & The Government:

Many who read Patty Hearst's book, "Every Secret Thing," will discover that she contributed the clearest critique ever offered of the anti-white mindset associated with Marxist terrorists (and many liberals). When there is a Pulitzer prize for books helpful to the cause of Americans of European descent, let it go to her. Mrs. Hearst also spoke out against the government's common practice of burning its opponents alive; which was done in the SLA case (even when they believed Patty was in the building), in the Gordon Kahl tax protester case, the Robert Matthews case, and in the Branch Davidian case. I have worked in fire safety for fifteen years, and while many people may think burning their political opponents alive is just as good as any other way (As in, the means justified by ends), let me assure you that it's horrifying beyond belief. It's got to be stopped, for it's a tactic we might better have expected in some no holds barred racist novel, though I don't recall even one of those stooping that low.

Patricia Hearst defends her right to live

The SLA kidnaps her. The SLA locks her in a closet. The SLA has rifles aimed at her in the bank. The government tries to kill them. The government imprisons her.Go figure.

Stunning

I read the story of Patty Hearst and I loved it. It was a truthful account of what transpired and provides a deep insight on how the mind works and what the human mind will do to stay alive. You feel like you are there with her and at times you can feel her pain. An intriguing and tragic story. Also a great view of 1970s America

Riveting, incredible, and hard to believe.

If you're too young to recall the events of the Patty Hearst abduction, this book will certainly capture your interest. If you do remember the events that took place in September of 1974, you will also want to read this book because it also reintroduces many social events that were taking place during that era that in retrospect seem very silly. I would recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of the 1970's
