Popular Crime: Reflections on the Celebration of Violence
Rating
The Pequod Review:
With Popular Crime, Bill James turns his focus from baseball to true crime, and offers analyses on virtually every major true crime story from the past 250 years: O.J. Simpson, JonBenet Ramsey, the Lindbergh kidnapping, Sacco-Vanzetti, the Kennedy assassination, and many more. In each case, he examines the evidence in a thoughtful and original way, and comes up with sometimes brilliant and sometimes far-fetched insights.
