Paperback. Condizione: Good. From the best-selling true crime writer, author of The Devil's Rooming House, and star of the new Investigation Discovery television series Dark Minds comes the horrific legacy of death and destruction in the gun-making Colt family during the nineteenth century, a legacy largely remembered for a lurid murder case that inspired Edgar Allan Poe's story The Oblong Box--but one that encompassed so much more.M. William Phelps reveals an unfathomable pattern surrounding repeating-arms inventor Samuel Colt--from the death of all the Colt children, including Sam's sea captain son's mysterious demise aboard his yacht, to the eccentric and pious life of Sam Colt's widow.

Printer Samuel Adams went to collect a debt from bookkeeper and author John Colt and was never seen alive again. His mangled corpse was found in a crate addressed to New Orleans aboard a ship in New York harbor.

Did John marry the pregnant Caroline Henshaw in prison on the day of his execution to protect the reputation of his brother, the woman's true lover and father of her child? Did Sam Colt invent the revolving pistol, or steal the idea?
