A welcome addition to criminology collections

The Great Wisconsin Manhunt Of 1961 is the true story of an infamous shootout and fallout in the Wisconsin Dells in the summer of 1961. When a police officer was killed, it triggered one of the most intense manhunts in state history. Black-and-white photographs embellish this gripping, truth-more-compelling-than-fiction tale of the dogged chase, meticulously presented by University of Wisconsin professor Marshall Cook. A welcome addition to criminology collections, and especially recommended for "true crime" buffs, and as inspiration resouce for Wisconsin based mystery/action/suspense writers.
