The L.A. Riots

Résumé du livre

Acts of violence, inspired by anger at a not-guilty verdict acquitting three Los Angeles police officers in the Rodney King assault trial, took Los Angeles hostage. By the end of the rampage, sixty people were dead, twenty-three hundred more were injured, and thousands of businesses lay in smoky ruins. This account captures the tense mood of one of the deadliest riots in American history.
