Dean Jobb: A Gentlemen and a Thief
Episode Ep 21 50 min 55s
We’ve had this author on before when he talked about his book on serial poisoner Dr. Thomas Neill Cream. Today, Dean Jobb tells us about a different kind of criminal, a man known as the “prince of thieves.” Arthur Barry stole from the rich in the Jazz Age and then offered a detailed confession when he was caught. How did he get away with it for so long? It’s all in the book: A Gentleman and a Thief: The Daring Jewel Heists of a Jazz Age Rogue.
