The Dynamite Conspiracy is a narrative-driven retelling of the bombing of the anti-Union Los Angeles Times by Union Terrorists in 1910. The attack killed 20 people. After a six-month search by a bulldog detective, William Burns, the two conspirators were caught and put on trial in Los Angeles. The era’s top defense attorney, Clarence Darrow, who was hired by Samuel Gompers of the American Federation of Labor, defended them. Darrow eventually pleaded his clients guilty to save them from execution. He was himself put on trail, however, on a charge of jury bribery. After a sensational three-month trial defended by the legendary Earl Roger, Darrow was exonerated, returned to Chicago, and went on to bigger cases.

It was an explosion that reverberated across the country—and into the very heart of early-twentieth-century America. On the morning of October 1, 1910, the walls of the Los Angeles Times Building buckled as a thunderous detonation sent men, machinery, and mortar rocketing into the night air. When at last the wreckage had been sifted and the hospital triage units consulted, twenty-one people were declared dead and dozens more injured. But as it turned out, this was just a prelude to the devastation that was to come. In American Lightning, acclaimed author Howard Blum masterfully evokes the incredible circumstances that led to the original “crime of the century”—and an aftermath more d...
