The Rise And Fall Of The Dillinger Gang

THE RISE AND FALL OF THE DILLINGER GANG is about the nine major members of the Dillinger Gang: John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson, Homer Van Meter, Eddie Green, Harry Pierpont, Charley Makely, Russell Lee Clark, John Hamilton, and Thomas Carroll. With the exception of Clark, who received a life sentence behind bars, all of the gangsters met violent deaths before the end of 1934. While several serious full-length biographies have been written about Dillinger and one on Nelson, there are no major biographies of the other gang members.
THE RISE AND FALL OF THE DILLINGER GANG corrects this oversight. Utilizing FBI files, court records, prison records, local newspapers, and books as sources, Jeffery S. King provides insight into crime conditions in the 1920s and the war on crime in the early 1930s. The rise of the FBI and bureau officials Melvin Purvis and J. Edgar Hoover is an important part of the story, as is background information about the extensive criminal activities of the Dillinger gangsters before they joined the gang and the ultimate fates of the Dillinger-era lawmen and criminals.
