The Last Days of Cleveland: and More True Tales of Crime and Disaster from Cleveland's Past

The sixth volume in Bellamy's popular series of true crime and disaster includes Joseph "Specs" Russell, who vaulted to fame in the summer of 1927 by staging 52 stick-ups and making fools of Cleveland lawmen with "impossible" escapes from their dragnets . . . West Park sisters Helen, 11, and Marguerite, 10, who died after eating Rough-on-Rats brand poison in their grandmother's basement--were they victims of a genetic "suicide mania," or of the cruelest caretaker since Hansel and Gretel's stepmom? . . . The wealthy but oh-so-unlucky Corrigan family, whose turn for the worse only began with the sinking of their luxury yacht on Lake Erie . . . and many other gripping tales.
