(Click to Enlarge)

SYNOPSIS:  361 pages. "TRUE CRIME. The dramatic story of the New York County District Attorney's Office under Thomas E. Dewey and Frank S. Hogan. The office's ace investigator for sixteen exciting years was Harold R. ( Dan) Danforth. Under Dewey and Hogan he participated in every important criminal case in the history of New York County since 1935. This is the story of his years with the D. A. Those were the turbulent, racket-busting years when District Attorney Thomas E. Dewey and, later, Frank S. Hogan, were combating the organized underworld. Much of the evidence that convicted such czars of crime as Charles 'Lucky' Luciano, Dutch Schultz and Dixie Davis was collected - frequently at hair-raising personal risk - by Danforth. Here is the whole story, from tip-off to prosecution, of some of the most famous investigations that ever rocked the City of New York."
