Book Synopsis Men of No Reputation by : Kimberly Harper
Book excerpt: "'Men of No Reputation,' the story of a gang of con men [led by Robert P.W. Boatright and John C. Mabray] in the Missouri Ozarks who swindled millions, reveals the seedier side of turn-of-the-century rural America and offers rare insight into one of the most successful cons of all time. Like the works of Sinclair Lewis, this story exposes a rift in the wholesome midwestern stereotype and furthers our understanding of turn-of-the-century American society"
