Death in the Jungle: Murder, Betrayal, and the Lost Dream of Jonestown
Candace Fleming
This account examines Jim Jones, the Peoples Temple, and the events surrounding the 1978 mass deaths at Jonestown. It follows Jones from his early interest in persuasive speakers and preaching through the growth of an integrated church that promised equality and justice. As the organization became increasingly controlling, Jones relocated followers to Guyana, where fear and violent coercion shaped life in the commune.
