The Mark Inside: A Perfect Swindle, a Cunning… por Amy Reading
The story regarding the con was interesting but author peppered story with other cons. Very hard to read as there was no flow from one con to the other.
Not engaging enough to hold my attention-gave up part way through.
This is the story of J. Frank Northfleet who got himself conned in 1919 and then set about hunting down the men who conned him (and a good deal of other con artists) over several years. Interesting background about con artistry and the background of these (mostly) true events.
