SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE WEEK
Assassination
by Miles Hudson
Miles Hudson examines a fascinating range of political assassinations in which he attempts to establish whether or not these acts achieved their political aims. He touches on the question of whether the course of history can be determined by individuals and if so, to what extent. He also asks whether individual leaders are merely the result, and not the cause, of political evolution. His narrative ranges from historical examples like Julius Caesar, Thomas Becket and Marat, through to famous 20th-century victims of assassination including Rasputin. Mahatma and Indira Gandhi. Martin Luther King and Yitzhak Rabin.
