Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This striking hardback guide examines some of the most important assassinations in history, illustrated throughout with chilling full-color photographs from the World History Archive.

This collection features 50 of the most high-profile assassinations of all time, including those of: - Julius Caesar, the man killed to protect a republic only to see his great-nephew crowned as emperor;- Empress Myeongseong, the last Empress of Korea before the Japanese occupation;- Archduke Franz Ferdinand, whose murder set Europe on the course to war;- John F. Kennedy, President of the United States, whose death generated conspiracy theories for decades to come;- Indira Gandhi, India's only female prime minister.
