The Story of the Extremists Who Hijacked the 1970s

In the 1970s a network of militant groups carried out high-profile hijackings, hostage-takings and bombings across Europe, the Middle East and beyond. Using archival material and interviews, Burke profiles key figures and events and traces how secular, leftist revolutionary movements and nationalist causes evolved into forms of violent religious extremism.
