Insider is reading.....

As a Los Angeles county prosecutor, Vincent Bugliosi batted a thousand in murder cases: 21 trials, 21 convictions, including the Charles Manson case in 1971. As an author, Mr. Bugliosi has written three No. 1 best sellers and won three Edgar Allan Poe awards, the top honor for crime writers.

More than 30 years ago he co-wrote the best seller Helter Skelter, about the Manson case.

His latest, a polemic with the provocative title The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder, has risen to best-seller status with nary a peep from the usual outlets that help sell books: cable television and book reviews in major daily newspapers.
