Title: Sloppy Research
Review: I consulted this book to see what this British author had to say about Allan Pinkerton, founder of the Pinkerton Detective Agency and the forerunner of the Secret Service during the U.S. Civil War. The author's brief account of Pinkerton's "Molly Maguires" investigation was shockingly inaccurate and misleading. This book is an embarrassment for Yale University Press.
