Blaise Clark; Mukherjee Bharati
The Sorrow and the Terror: The Haunting Legacy of the Air India Tragedy
Markham Ontario: Viking Press 1987. 219 pages. Maps photos. Exlibrary book with usual drawbacks including adhesive stains to inside covers flyleaf removed. Moderate to significant shelfwear to bottom edge with underlying boards showing at tips. Contents are clean tight and bright - quite a satisfactory reading copy. Dust jacket has slight wear/rubbing to extremities with a couple of tiny nicks spine label removed light tape marks on inside; looks quite decent in new Brodart cover. On June 23 1985 Air India Flight 182 and its 329 passengers and crew disappeared off the coast of Ireland. A bomb planned and made in Canada and planted by Sikh terrorist extremists had exploded. "Untrained and indifferent airport security an unresponsive and unprepared ministry of transport and an insensitive prime minister were exposed within hours of the crash." Extensive interviews by the authors give a many-sided view of the events and their aftermath. The families' frustration at the time was very great as they express poignantly to the authors and 20 years on as the trial of the prime suspects ended in a verdict of not guilty there is still no sense of closure. A must-read on how government apathy allows terrorism to happen and terrorists to operate. Hard Cover. Good/Very Good. 6.75 x 9.5 in. 17cm x 24cm. Ex-Library. Viking Press hardcover
