"Crime is a fact of the human species, a fact of that species alone."
--Georges Bataille, French philosopher
Interest in criminal behavior continues to flourish.
The worse the crime and the greater the notoriety of the perpetrator, the more the public yearns to digest every detail.
Atlas of True Crime offers a wide-ranging survey of the criminal underworld from the 1850s to the present, providing illustrated histories of dozens of infamous individuals who have left their mark on society -- in the darkest ways possible.
Profiled are the apex serial killers: John Wayne Gacy, Ted Bundy and David Berkowitz; the cannibals: Jeffrey Dahmer, Ed Gein and Albert Fish; and the spree killers like Richard Speck, Charles Whitman and Charles Manson; plus murderers and cannibals from around the world.
