Book description
History is blighted by the deeds of many men – Pol Pot, Idi Amin, Joseph Stalin, Papa Doc, Adolf Hitler, Al Capone, The Kray Twins, Marquis de Sade, Vlad the Impaler, Attila the Hun, Ghengis Khan, Ivan the Terrible, Nero, Caligula, to name but a few whose cruelty and violence have changed the face of the human race and certainly given it cause to examine its own nature more closely.
This book takes a penetrating look at the lives of such men and attempts to explain the motives or driving forces behind some of the most heinous crimes ever committed.
