In Yellow Kid Weil: The Autobiography of America's Master Swindler, the legendary con artist himself lays bare the secrets of a life spent running confidence trick scams across Gilded Age America and the early twentieth century. This true crime memoir is more than a criminal autobiography; it is a rare, first-hand account of the art of swindling and fraud, told with wit, candour, and astonishing insight into the psychology of deception.Weil's story unfolds with a clarity that draws in both the casual reader and the serious criminology researcher.
