Title: A Wikipedia page from the 70's
Review: Back in its' day, this book served the same function that Wikipedia does now-it was a gateway to hundreds of topics and people and places related to true crime. Before cable TV and the interweb, this was the way to grab general information on Baby Face Nelson, Albert Fish, H. H. Holmes, Bonnie and Clyde, the Dalton Gang and scores of others. Nash was never one to let historical accuracy get in the way of a juicy story or conspiracy theory; so you need to tread lightly on the details-but this can't be beat for sheer exposure to people you'd otherwise probably never know.
