"To Kill a King" is a nonfiction compilation about the gallons of
blue blood that have been spilled throughout history. The author
reports little-known details about famous and obscure royal victims
and offers theories about the murderers' motivations despite
royalty's semi-divine status as God's anointed representatives on
earth. Just one of many compelling examples to be found in "To Kill
a King" Gen. MacArthur's advisors urged him not to prosecute or
execute Emperor Hirohito for war crimes because the Japanese ruler
was considered a living god by his subjects. It was feared that the
emperor's execution would have had the same effect as "crucifying
Jesus Christ" in the West and cause riots, complicating America's
occupation of Japan after World War II.
