Description: If you love Newman and Redford's 1973 film The Sting, this is where the screenwriter sourced all of his material. Both he and history will try to argue that this book was only one of his many books of research when writing the script, but after reading this you'll realize what complete horseshit that argument is. This book has every main character and every main plot point nicely lined out in its early descriptions of the Big Con stores. Totally engrossing and really well written. Condition: it's a used paperback -- no real isses, no page tears, no underlining or highliting of text, just a crease in the cover. Just your regular already-read paperback that is going to give you a lot of pleasure to read. Thanks for looking and returns not offered!
