Wonderfully updated, new stuff

A great updated book on the subject of John Dillinger, good fresh approach with new items. Wonderful research from two of crime history's masters: Helmer & Mattix ! Just get it- Sandy Jones John Dillinger Historical Society & Outlaw Museum

Classic Dillinger

Newly revised and expanded Giradin-Helmer classic, skillfully edited with the assistance of premier crime historian, Rick Mattix..A well-crafted telling of the life and crimes of America's most notorious criminal icon. Cram-packed with new information (40 pages) and told directly from the mouths of the outlaw's family, lawyer, and associates. This fast-paced and entertaining book truly represents the holy grail for Dillinger aficionados."

The Truth About Dillinger

Contrary to what one anonymous reviewer from Indianapolis, who obviously did not read the book, has written, there are no invented stories in this book. None of the facts have been changed except for revision of erroneous old popular legends. What's more, the book was not written by "I.U. Profs." I know because I helped with the research. Unlike the speculative fiction of Jay Robert Nash, this is about as close to the truth on Dillinger as we're ever likely to get.

Dillinger, The Untold Story

Dillinger : The Untold Story by G. Russell Girardin, William J. Helmer is by far one of the best stories written about the John Dillinger Gang. Based on a Girardin's 600 page manuscript written in the 1930's as well as an extraordinary insight by Helmer. The book gives a detailed look at the inside facts and events surrounding John Dillinger's last days and the aftermath that follows. This very resourceful book includes the locations of Dillinger haunts in Chicago. I highly recommend this book.

The Definitive Dillinger

Using new data gathered from personal interviews and ancient FBI files, Girardin and Helmer have crafted the most complete and accurate biography we're likely to see on Depression America's foremost public enemy. A virtual "Dead Sea scrolls" of Dillingeriana!
