Bill James is one of my favorite authors. He has written about baseball and changed the thinking there. He wrote a book called Popular Crime where he looked at true crime over the last century or so. His new book, The Man From the Train investigates a series of crimes that happened in the early part of the 20th century. And I don't want to give anything away, but he (and his daughter) FIND THE GUY. I mean, they identify him. They didn't walk up to some 130-year old like Mike Wallace descending on a boardroom and interrogate him.
Here's a link to get it through Amazon: http://a.co/5Utuk7F I may be dead inside, but that doesn't mean you have to be. Loved it, five out of five stars.
