I watched this video for the first time early last summer. I can't help but notice the uncanny freakish resemblence that Kehoe has to Phillip Seymour Hoffman. I honestly am tempted to try and show him this clip.....if only I knew how. He seems like the perfect candidate if a movie were made.
I grew up in this town, this book made us recognized. Fun fact for all that are wondering. Neil Curtis owns the land kehoes house used to be on and its now a corn field. Take that Kehoe
Why has this story not been made into a film? What a great horror film. Unimaginable evil, attacks from nowhere. In reading the coroner's transcript, so many things become apparent that are so different from today. Cars are known as "the machine". Wiring is almost unheard of, so it would stand out. Nice neighbor, great guy... plotting all the while to murder all your children. This tale would surpass so many others of which films are made. My grandma lost a sister in the school.
I am a horror writer/filmmaker that lives in Michigan. When I saw this video on Facebook, I had to look you up on here. Subscribed. Nicely done, the music fits very well.
This first time I heard of the Bath School tragedy was in 2002. When they were having the 75th anniversary. My family lost two children in the bombing. My grandfather was 5 months old at the time. They were one of his brothers and one sister. My grandfather was at the 75th anniversary but died that july. I can't wait to read this book.
I heard of this tragedy from my mother. It happened before she was born, but she heard it from her extended family. The Zimmerman family lost two sons. A daughter stayed home that tragic day due to illness. How sad. The man on the cover of the book looks very much like their grieving father, a man I knew in the 1960s, but Mr. Bernstein did not know the man's identity. I will always wonder if it was Mr. Zimmerman.
Kehoe was the original Timothy McVeigh. He actually was more cruel in his deliberate targeting of the innocent children. The man was absolutely insane. This story was knocked off the front pages by Lindbergh`s historic crossing of the Atlantic . History has largely buried this story as it has many other tragic criminal acts. I grew up in Chicago , within 3 miles of serial killer H.H.Holmes castle of death and Camp Douglas, Civil War P.O.W. camp where 7000 died .I only learned of them recently.
My grandfather Lt. Donald D. McNaughton was one of the two State Troopers who recovered and dis-mantled the remaining explosives frome the site. I am a extremely curious and eager of the reading of this book.
I grew up in Bath and I know that Mr. Bernstein has worked very hard, and with great effort to tell this story with a high level of sensitivity and integrity. I look forward to reading the book!

This book chronicles the first known act of domestic terrorism. I'm surprised there hasn't been a movie made yet...
