Holmes: A blotch on the White City: Period accounts of Herman W. Mudgett, America's first serial murderer","description":"\"God only knows, for I do not, how this man could do such a deed. Devils may know how he could do it, but it is beyond the ken of any human being with a heart to conceive.\" With those words, the prosecutor summed-up the sentiment of an entire nation aghast at the crimes committed at the so-called \"castle\" of Herman W. Mudgett, alias H. H. Holmes, during the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago where the alabaster-colored buildings earned it the moniker \"White City.\" Here is assembled a collection of period accounts to help recreate the excitement and horror of the time; the trial and meted-out justice of America's first serial murderer.Updated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Miksanek\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/19\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.33lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781499296365\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChris Miksanek is a genealogy and urban history aficionado and has previously published books on topics including the histories of the Brooklyn Bridge and Elvis Presley's Graceland.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":53324635078954,"sku":"9781499296365","price":12.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1022\/4553\/1946\/files\/img_959eaa8c-5f1c-4e89-a190-56580d938efc.jpg?v=1793059221","url":"https:\/\/delvanta.shop\/products\/h-h-holmes-a-blotch-on-the-white-city-period-accounts-of-herman-w-mudgett-americas-first-serial-murderer","provider":"Whitmore Lane","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
