Malcolm Kerr was president of the American University of Beirut when he was assassinated there in 1984 as he stepped off an elevator. The turmoil of mid-1980s Lebanon prevented any useful investigation of his assassination. However, thanks to the passage of the US Anti-Terrorist Act of 1996 and the rigorous efforts of daughter Van de Ven, her family and their supporters, the truth about who fired that bullet and why came to be known, and representatives of the Islamic Republic of Iran stood before a judge of the US District Court. The narrative, complete with primary material from Kerr's papers, journalists and even former Hizballah hostages, is compelling. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
