520 A detailed historical account of the serial killer calls
on never before examined primary documents to reveal how
he managed to take advantage of the crowds drawn by the
1893 World's Fair to create his own castle of horrors
520 "H. H. Holmes: The True History of the White City Devil is
the first truly comprehensive book examining the life and
career of a murderer who has become one of America's great
supervillains. It reveals not only the true story but how
the legend evolved, taking advantage of hundreds of
primary sources that have never been examined before,
including legal documents, letters, articles, and records
that have been buried in archives for more than a century"
