The World's Greatest Crooks And Conmen (World's Greatest)

The World's Greatest Crooks And Conmen (World's Greatest)

Nigel Bundell
3.3/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Like it or not, the rascals and rogues of this world are generally more interesting characters than the good guys and their names and escapades are often better remembered than those of the heroes.

In this volume you will find a remarkable array of men and women, including the cigar-maker who made a fortune by exhibiting a home-made giant. the politician who faked his own death, leaving behind him vast debts, the clerk who "invested" £32 million of his bank's money and the train robber who became a legend in his own lifetime.

Nigel Blundell is a Fleet Street journalist who has circled the world collecting many of the bizarre stories presented in this book.

This is a companion volume to: The World's Greatest Cranks and Crackpots, The World's Greatest Mistakes, The World's Greatest Mysteries.
