GRAND DECEPTION

Publisher: Lippincott

An amazing array of careers where talents have been employed to hoax, humbug, fraud, or just bemuse- all come from real life and are reported by such writers as Holbrook, Edith Sitwell, Biancolli, Alva Johnston, John T. Flynn and others. There's a wide variety here:- an astounding art forger, Orson Welles' Martian broadcast, the Cardiff giant's begetters etc. and etc. Quackery and duplicity for all.
