Full Description
The books in this series explore the events and personal experiences that led some of history's most fascinating people to engage in heroic or villainous behaviour. The results and consequences of their actions are also detailed. Each volume strives to present these individuals realistically by revealing a hero's flaws and a villain's endearing characteristics. This volume focuses on Osama bin Laden, who spent more than two decades creating himself as a radical leader and terrorist in the Middle East. After the September 11th 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States, bin Laden came into international focus and became the world's most wanted man.
