Publisher Description
Best-selling author Michael Farquhar is a writer and editor for The Washington Post. A Treasury of Deception is a tongue-in-cheek commemoration of those who attempted to pull off the greatest scams. Conmen, tricksters, charlatans, impostors, and downright liars seeking wealth, 15 minutes of fame, or the alleviation of blame rely upon the maxim that “there’s a sucker born every minute.” “A Treasury of Deception is a zestful, gossipy exposE-and celebration-of mendacity.”-Booklist

“I love Farquhar, and not just because the subliminals at the back of the book told me too. He takes history, often considered a dry and boring subject, and injects some life into it! This isn’t my favorite of his books, but it’s great anyway!”
