Softcover / Paperback. Condizione: Fine. First edition. Softcover. Ten-year old Beverly Potts was last seen at 9pm the evening of August 24, 1951, at Halloran Park on Cleveland's West Side. She and her neighbour and friend Patricia Swing had gone to see the Showagon - a troupe of singers, dancers, magicians, and other performers that travelled around Cleveland's neighbourhood parks during the summer giving free performances. Patricia had to be home before dark, but Beverly's parents told her she could stay until the show was over. When she was still not home by 9.30, her father and sister went out looking for her. They returned home at 10.30 without her and called the Cleveland police. Beverly Potts had disappeared without a trace or any evidence of her fate. The author re-examines the events leading up to Beverly Potts's disappearance and the subsequent police investigation and over-the-top, sensational publicity in the Cleveland press. His interviews with detectives assigned to this still-open case and his examination of police records provide a chronology of the false leads and hoaxes that culminated in this disturbing case of dead end after dead end. The author draws comparisons between investigative techniques of the time and more modern ones and examines the social and historical context in his analysis of the more than half-century of public fascination with this case. Those who remember the kidnapping and still wonder what happened to Beverly Potts will look for clues in this book. Illus., Bibliographical Note and Index. 194pp. trade size softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F. with no creasing to covers.

Softcover / Paperback. Condizione: New. No Jacket. New softcover, 1st US edn. The facts and fiction of an infamous New England murder. When the winter ice melted in April 1850, residents of Saco, Maine, made a gruesome discovery: the body of a young girl submerged in a stream. Thanks to evidence left at the scene, a local physician was arrested and tried for the death of Mary Bean, the name given to the unidentified young girl. The cause of death was failed abortion. Garnering extensive newspaper coverage, the trial revealed many secrets: a poorly trained doctor, connections to an unsolved murder in New Hampshire, and the true identity of "Mary Bean" - a young Canadian mill worker named Berengera Caswell, missing since the previous winter. The author examines the series of events that led Caswell to become Mary Bean and the intense curiosity and anxiety stimulated by this heavily watched trial. In addition to the sensational murder accounts, the author looks back at these events through a wide-angle lens exploring such themes as the rapid social changes brought about the urbanization and industrialisation in antebellum 19th century society, factory work and the changing roles for women, unregulated sexuality and the spectre of abortion, and the sentimental novel as a guide book. She posits that the real threat to women in the 19th century was not murder but a society that had ambiguous feelings about the role of women in the economic system, in education, and as independent citizens. Sure to place this case among the classics of crime literature, this book features two reprinted accounts of Caswell's death, both fictional and originally printed in the 1850s, as well as an introduction that places these salacious accounts in historical context. This book serves not simply as true crime but also presents a seamy side of rapid industrial growth and the public anxiety over the emerging economic roles of women. Illus., Notes, Sources and Index. 203pp. New softcover.

Hard Cover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: No DJ. First Edition. Red cloth with bright gilt titling on spine. No ownership inscription. . xxx, 145 pages clean and tight. From Preface: "The present volume undertakes to provide students, teachers, and scholars with a bibliography which will be useful as a guide to research into the life and writings of Emily Dickinson. Previous bibliographies, those compiled by The Jones Library, Inc. and by Alfred Leete Hampson, were incomplete and eccentric even when they were published in 1930; today they are clearly obsolete. Consequently, this new bibliography aims to be a complete catalogue of: (1) editions of Emily Dickinson's writings, (2) first or early printings of her poems, (3) books, chapters in books, and parts of chapters, (4) bibliographies and bibliographical discussions, (5) unpublished doctoral dissertations and important M.A. and undergraduate theses, (6) essays and parts of essays published in periodicals, both scholarly and popular, (7) review articles, operationally defined as reviews extending to three or more pages. Though completeness is claimed only for items from the United States, England, and Canada, numerous foreign publications are included. And though the scope of the bibliography is nominally from 1850 to 1966, many 1967 contributions are included." Size: 8vo.
