On August 6, 1974, a bomb exploded at Los Angeles International
Airport, killing three people and injuring thirty-five others. It
was the first time an airport had been bombed anywhere in the
world. A few days later, police recovered a cassette tape
containing a chilling message: "This first bomb was marked with the
letter A, which stands for Airport," said a voice. "The second bomb
will be associated with the letter L, the third with the letter I,
etc., until our name has been written on the face of this nation in
blood." In The Alphabet Bomber: A Lone Wolf Terrorist Ahead of His
Time, internationally renowned terrorism expert Jeffrey D. Simon
tells the gripping tale of Muharem Kurbegovic, a bright but
emotionally disturbed Yugoslav immigrant who single-handedly
brought Los Angeles to a standstill during the summer of 1974. He
had conjured up the fictitious group "Aliens of America," but it
was soon discovered that he acted alone in a one-man war against
government and society. The story of the Alphabet Bomber is about
an extraordinary manhunt to find an elusive killer, a dogged
prosecutor determined to bring him to justice, a pioneering female
judge, and a devious mastermind whose heinous crimes foreshadowed
the ominous threats we face today from lone wolf terrorists.
