The Crime of the Century in Clare, Michigan, comes alive in this vivid account of events and people behind a spectacular 1938 murder in the Doherty Hotel. Meet Isaiah Leebove--brilliant lawyer, artful dodger, friend and mouthpiece to gangsters, oil speculator, and inveterate gamble--as he interacts with famous gangsters like Arnold Rothstein, the 'fixer' of the 1919 World Series, 'Dapper Dan' Collins in New York City, and the Purple Gang out of Detroit. Happily married to a beautiful showgirl, loyal to his extensive family, sympathetic to the downtrodden, his private life is at odds with his work as a mouthpiece and money launderer for the mob. Leebove is a mysterious figure living and dying in the boundary between respectability and the underworld.Leebove's murderer, Jack Livingston, consumed by an almost deranged love of showmanship and unbalanced by alcoholism, teeters between genius as an oil speculator and irrational acts of self-deception and destruction. Was the slaying merely revenge for a perceived slight, or did the mob put him up to getting rid of Leebove?Mystery Man draws on a wide range of unpublished material, as well as newspaper reports and personal interviews to present this exciting tale gangsters, oil, and murder in Michigan.

What survives from the Roman Empire is largely the words and lives of the rich and powerful: emperors, philosophers, senators. Yet the privilege and decadence often associated with the Roman elite was underpinned by the toils and tribulations of the common citizens. Here, the eminent historian Robert Knapp brings those invisible inhabitants of Rome and its vast empire to light.  He seeks out the ordinary folk laboring men, housewives, prostitutes, freedmen, slaves, soldiers, and gladiators who formed the backbone of the ancient Roman world, and the outlaws and pirates who lay beyond it. He finds their traces in the nooks and crannies of the histories, treatises, plays, and poetry created by the elite. Everyday people come alive through original sources as varied as graffiti, incantations, magical texts, proverbs, fables, astrological writings, and even the New Testament.  Knapp offers a glimpse into a world far removed from our own, but one that resonates through history. "Invisible Romans" allows us to see how Romans sought on a daily basis to survive and thrive under the afflictions of disease, war, and violence, and to control their fates before powers that variously oppressed and ignored them.
