Chicago May: Her Story

Gelesen von Jim Locke

This is a cold-blooded recital of fact, a plain, unvarnished statement from a client to a lawyer. It is the history of the life of a notorious woman criminal. It was dictated by her to my stenographer, and has not been polished up for public consumption. The story stands as given. (from Foreword by Henry John Nelson) (9 hr 36 min)
