From Chicago historian Adam Selzer, expert on all of the Windy
City's quirks and oddities, comes a compelling heavily researched
anthology of the stories behind its most fascinating unsolved
mysteries. To create this unique volume, Selzer has collected forty
unsolved mysteries from the 1800s to modern day. He has poured
through all newspaper, magazine, and book references to them, and
consulted expert historians. Topics covered include who really
started the great Chicago fire, who was the first "automobile
murderer," and even if there was actually a vampire slaying at Rose
Hill cemetery. The result is both a colorful read to get lost in, a
window to a world of curiosity and wonder, as well as a volume that
separates fact from fiction true crime from urban legend.
Complementing the gripping stories Selzer presents are original
images of the crime and its suspects as developed by its original
investigators. Readers will marvel at how each character and crime
were presented, and happily journey with Selzer as he presents all
facts and theories presented at the time of the "crime" and uses
modern hindsight to assemble the pieces.
