Okay, we're live. Hi, this is William Ramsey. Welcome to William Ramsey Investigates. On today's show, I have a very special guest. His name is Ivor Davis, and he published a book in 2019, which I read through today, really fascinating book titled Manson Exposed, a reporter's 50-year journey into madness and murder. And there is an audio book of this book, if you're interested in that,

but this is not Ivers first book. He's also written another book titled, Ladies and Gentlemen,

The Penguins in 2018, and also a very well-received book that I saw on Amazon with like over

a hundred five-star reviews titled The Beatles and Me on Tour. That was published in 2014.

And an original book that he published on Manson goes all the way back to 1970, which you

mentioned in this book, Manson exposed, the title of that book was, and you can still see it

online, you have to pay $350 if you want to read it, but it's five to die, the book that

helped convict Manson.

And it actually was part of the court case of Charles Manson.

And Ivor Davis has his own website.

The website is his full name, Ivor, I-V-O-R-D-A-V-I-S, Books.com.

And you can see all his works there.

He has contact information there.

But I'm delighted to have it.

I've kind of been chasing him down for a little bit.

So Ivor Davis, thanks for coming on the show. Welcome.

Thank you very much, William, and thanks for having me on the show.

Awesome. So for people who may not have heard your name, you have a long career in journalism.

Can you talk about your background and how you got involved in the Manson family saga.

Well, very briefly, in the early 60s, I came to America without a job, and I was very lucky

because in 1963, I was hired to be West Coast correspondent in Los Angeles for the biggest, one of the biggest

London newspapers in England, the London Daily Express.
