FBI 100 YEARS: AN UNOFFICIAL HISTORY is an exciting, heavily illustrated account of the crime-fighting activities of the Bureau over its first century. Grab your holster and your badge--you'll be tagging along with some of the FBI's most determined G men, investigating and interrogating a century's-worth of kidnappers, killers, bootleggers, bank robbers, smugglers, and spies. The contributions of each of the FBI's directors are examined, as well as their innovative--and sometimes questionable--tactics. From fact-checking to myth-busting, FBI 100 Years opens the secret files, dusts for fingerprints, explores the hideouts, pulls out the brass knuckles, and shines a white-hot spotlight on some of America's most notorious hoodlums, kingpins, and crooks throughout the Bureau's existence. - LINDBERGH BABY KIDNAPPING - HOOVER'S SECRET FILES - "BABY FACE" NELSON - BONNIE AND CLYDE - JOHN DILLINGER - AL CAPONE - ALGER HISS - McCARTHYISM - THE KKK - ASSASSINATIONS OF KENNEDY AND KING - THE BLACK PANTHERS - THE WEATHER UNDERGROUND - PATTY HEARST - WATERGATE - JOHN GOTTI - RUBY RIDGE AND WACO - PATRIOT ACT Author Henry M.
