From the back cover: One MAD MAN. Thirty-three BOMBS. A sixteen-year-long MANHUNT. And the city of New York HELD HOSTAGE. This is the extraordinary true story of George Metesky, New York's "Mad Bomber," who single-handedly carried out a reign of terror that would span sixteen years, and reverberate forever through the social, legal, and political landscape of America. It is the fascinating story of a manhunt that would ultimately lead a frustrated New York City Police Department to a little-known crime psychiatrist in an effort to identify and capture the Mad Bomber and create in its wake the birth of modern criminal profiling.
