Description
"Every Knee Shall Bow" answers the critical questions that cut to the heart of the most explosive issues in America today. <P>The Weaver family took to the woods to escape what they believed was a sinful world on the brink of Armageddon. But Weaver's indictment on a firearms violation escalated into a deadly shoot-out at his Northern Idaho cabin. Before it was over, a federal marshal, Weaver's wife, and his only son were dead. <P>Now, featuring exclusive interviews with key figures on both sides, Pulitzer finalist Jess Walter objectively reconstructs all the riveting events on this controversial case: <P>What went wrong at Ruby Ridge?; How did the Weavers evolve from fundamentalist Christians to paranoid isolationists?; Why was Randy Weaver's only son fatally shot in the back?; How could the FBI justify killing a mother as she held her infant daughter in her arms?; Why were the Weavers given a $3.1 million settlement by the U.S. government?; Was there an FBI cover-up and how high did it go?; And many more startling and scandalous revelations.
