| Glasgow-born Alan Pinkerton (1819-1884), protector of Abraham Lincoln and Wild West law enforcer, was also founder of the world's first detective agency and the original private eye; but less well-known is his prolific crime writing. Ostensibly based on his own exploits and intended as promotional material for his agency, Pinkerton's stories of fraudsters and thieves are presented here, along with a biographical introduction from vintage crime expert Bruce Durie. | ||||
