Publisher's Summary

At the birth of the 20th century the advent of train travel throughout the United States brought assorted smooth-talking, quick-thinking con men. These men took people's money. Seasoned journalist Will Irwin chronicled the true confessions of a master swindler, card cheat, circus barker and master of persuasion. THE CONFESSIONS OF A CON MAN details one man’s apprenticeship into larceny and his journey as a criminal mastermind of daring swindles.

This edition is NOT A REPRINT nor is it REPRODUCED FROM AN AGED, ORIGINAL ARTIFACT. This book has been updated and edited and made completely accessible.
