Perfect for you if...

You're fascinated by real-life outlaws and the people who became folk heroes through sheer audacity.
You enjoy historical crime narratives and want to see how Defoe chronicled the underworld of Georgian London.
You appreciate primary sources and accounts written when the subject was still a living legend.

Maybe not for you if...

You need modern narrative structure and don't have patience for 18th-century prose conventions.
You're looking for psychological depth or moral complexity. This is a straightforward account of robberies and prison breaks.
You want contemporary true crime analysis. This is a period document, not modern reportage.
