Chicago-
The Capital of Crime
Long before the days of bathtub gin, the sawed-off machine gun, and the underworld killings of All Capone's Mob, the gusty, bawdy,brawling city of Chicago was world famous as "the wickedest city in the world." The lawless days when she was a frontier outpost, to the bullet-splattered twenties, her history has been lush with slaughter.

You'll meet...
Dr. Neil Cream- suave murderer. Vincent Starrett has vividly recreated the evil Dr. Cream and his strong passion for poisoning prostitutes.

Mildred Bolton- who taunted her husband and then finally shot him! Nellise Child has unearthed the terrible crime of passion surrounding "Marble Mildred!"

H.H. Holmes - what happened to the 150 beautiful young women who disappeared inside his castle? John B. Martin reveals the shocking events surround this modern Jekyll-and-Hyde.
