The Rajneesh Chronicles:
The True Story of the Cult that Unleashed the First Act of Bioterrorism on U.S. Soil
In India, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh incited his followers to unrestrained sexual license and encouraged them to engage in prostitution and drugsmuggling to feed his endless appetite for money . . . In Oregon, members of his cult launched the first campaign of bio-terrorism in U.S. history and a deranged nurse attempted to create a live AIDS virus . . . The Rajneesh Chronicles tells the frightening story from beginning to end. “Win McCormack has put a penetrating spotlight on Indian guru Bhagwan Rajneesh and his bizarre and very dangerous cult. An utterly fascinating work.”—Vincent Bugliosi, author of Helter Skelter |
