Book excerpt: A deeply researched account of Depression-era criminals who roamed the Midwest by the Pulitzer Prize–winning, New York Times–bestselling author. John Dillinger and his compatriots’ crime spree lasted a little over a year in the 1930s and left a trail of bodies in its wake. Dillinger’s bank robberies—and his ability to elude both a half-dozen state police forces and the FBI—kept Americans riveted during this bleak economic period. In this book, the author of the classic The Rising Sun chronicles Dillinger’s short criminal career and the exploits of other outlaws of the time . The eminent twentieth-century historian conducted hundreds of interviews and visited banks, jail cells, and other relevant sites in thirty-four states. Leading up to Dillinger’s violent death outside a Chicago movie house, this true-crime story is told with great depth and vivid detail. “This is the famed Dillinger’s story, a compendium as well of the murderous doings of compatriots like Ma Barker, Pretty Boy Floyd, Bonnie Parker, the Barrow Brothers, and a host of other hip-shooting, car-stealing bank robbers who made underworld American history in the Depression. . . [A] brutal yet colorful book.” —Kirkus Reviews

Book Herman  Baron  Lamm  the Father of Modern Bank Robbery

Download or read book Herman Baron Lamm the Father of Modern Bank Robbery written by Walter Mittelstaedt and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-11-08 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Former Prussian soldier Herman "Baron" Lamm (1890-1930) adapted his military training to a much less noble occupation after moving to America, developing a reputation as one of history's most brilliant and efficient bank robbers. Lamm's time fell between Butch Cassidy and John Dillinger's notorious careers, and Lamm never received the attention of the two famous gunslingers. This first full-length biography promotes Lamm from his supporting role, tracing his criminal exploits and his pioneering use of concepts like "casing" a bank and planning escape routes. Analysis of arrest records finds Lamm's genius as a criminal mastermind much overrated, and a detailed examination of the trial transcript of fellow gang members Walter Detrich and James Clark brings to life Lamm's spectacular downfall.
