By Dan Tyler Moore. "An exposé of the ways and wiles of con men, cardsharps, swindlers and rogues." Former OSS Cairo chief Moore shares international tales of grift and graft, including King Farouk, a naked "playboy," and others.
The delightfully designed jacket on this hardcover has seen some things, as you can see in the picks -- some toning and rubbing, a small tear at the back bottom, and a larger, repaired tear at the top front -- but the pages are quite bright. This relative rarity is a classic of midcentury design.
