Harold Schechter, Author of Maniac

Harold Schechter, author of Deviant and Hell's Princess, sits down with Daniel Ford on Friday Morning Coffee to chat about his latest book Maniac: The Bath School Disaster and the Birth of the Modern Mass Killer.

Caitlin Malcuit also discusses mass murder in the United States. She also has a word or two about the current Israeli/Palestinian conflict.

Every era in our history was afflicted with certain fears and anxieties and then a particular crime will come along which will seem to crystalize, embody, or incarnate those anxieties.
