Simon Reeve talked about his latest book, One Day in September: The Full Story of the 1972 Munich Olympics Massacre and the Israeli Revenge Operation "Wrath of God".

Mr. Reeve gathered information from the recently released Stasi files and interviews with key figures, including the families of the hostages, politicians, policemen, advisers, fellow athletes, media figures, and also the lone surviving member of the group that carried out the September 5, 1972, attack at the Olympics in Munich, West Germany.

Palestinian terrorists kidnapped and killed 11 members of the Israeli Olympic team. This book was published to coincide with the release of the film of the same title, which won the 1999 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. After his presentation he answered questions from members of the audience. close
