Assassination as a political act has a long history, predating the murder of Julius Caesar and continuing into our own time. J. Bowyer Bell combines existing historical evidence with years of personal interviews with terrorists in Africa, the Middle East, and Europe, resulting in a study of that enigmatic figure, the revolutionary killer.
