Edwin Alonzo Boyd: Life and Crimes of Canada's Master Bank Robber

by Nate Hendley

James Lorimer & Company Ltd., Publishers | August 26, 2003 | Trade Paperback

Edwin Alonzo Boyd - The Life and Crimes of Canada''''s Master Bank Robber "Edwin Boyd woke up, rolled out of bed, and got ready to rob his first bank. He began his preparations by disguising himself. He shoved wads of cotton into his cheeks and nostrils, smeared black mascara on his eyebrows, and rubbed rouge on his cheeks." This book will be especially fascinating for all readers interested in: history, biography, true crime. Toronto''s dashing "Gentleman Bank Robber" was a charismatic felon who masterminded a series of daring robberies with his legendary gang. The most famous bank robber Canada has ever produced was responsible for a three-year crime spree which caught the public''s imagination and made him an instant celebrity.

Bank Robber Edwin Boyd

I enjoyed this fast-paced book. Canada doesn't have many colourful criminals, which is why Edwin Boyd really stands out.

I would have liked this book to have been longer. Other than that, I think it's a great true crime tale.
