a| International terrorism first came to the forefront of modern life in the 1960s and 1970s, with the first high-profile plane hijackings, car bombings and political assassinations of the 20th Century. During this, the "golden age" of global terror, many terrorist organisations sprang up throughout the world, each with its own local agenda but all dedicated to an ultimate goal: world revolution. The groups spreading this Maoist mayhem included the Baader-Meinhof gang and the SPK, both from Germany; the notorious Carlos the Jackal, working for the PLO; Brigate Rosse from ltaly, the Red Army in Japan, and the Angry Brigade in England. South America had its own Shining Path, bent on kidnapping and slaughter, while North America was home to many disparate groups such as the SLA -- who notoriously kidnapped and converted heiress Patty Hearst -- the Weathermen, who dubbed 1970 the "Year of the Fork" in honour of Charles Manson -- and the Black Panthers, notorious fomenters of violent Afro-American revolution. Guns, Death, Terror covers all these groups, including photographs and original terror manifestos, making it an essential study of the roots of modern terrorism -- the most urgent issue of the 21st century.
