This is a softcover book, Going Clear - Scientology, Hollywood, The Prison of Belief by Lawrence Wright (who won a Pulitzer for The Looming Tower, his book about Al-Qaeda and 9/11). It is a trade paperback, a First Vintage Books Edition from November 2013. Wright spoke to two hundred current and former Scientologists for the book. It also includes the histories (up to that time, of course) of founder L. Ron Hubbard and current leader David Miscavige, and analysis of the relationships of Tom Cruise and John Travolta to the organization. The Church of Scientology denied the contents of the book, putting out an official statement and publishing a website, which is how you know there's a lot of truth in it. Oops that just slipped out and my backspace key is broken so sorry. Book is in good used condition. It shows a little wear but nothing serious. All pages are intact and clean, and there's no writing in it. Asking $4.00 obo. Everything I have listed for sale is "or best offer", so feel free to make an offer. ~~~~~ ALL ITEMS ARE AVAILABLE FOR LOCAL PICKUP. I sell a huge variety of stuff to supplement my income and help me put the last of my kids through college. Some items come from flea markets or estate sales, and some come from around our home, but many items come to me from my extended family of hardcore hoarders. So, the variety really can be vast and unpredictable. Please check back often, because you really never know what I will have from one day to the next! Thanks for visiting and have a great day!
