by Eugene Francois Vidocq (Author)

Memoirs of Vidocq: Principal Agent of the French Police is an autobiography written by Eugene Francois Vidocq, a former criminal who became the head of the French police. The book was first published in 1828 and later republished in 1853. In this book, Vidocq recounts his life as a criminal, his time in prison, and his eventual transformation into a police officer. He describes his experiences in the criminal underworld, including his involvement in theft, forgery, and other illegal activities. Vidocq also provides insights into the workings of the French police during the early 19th century, including their methods of investigation and the challenges they faced in maintaining law and order. The book is considered a classic of true crime literature and is often cited as a source of inspiration for modern detective fiction. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the criminal underworld of 19th century France and the life of one of its most notorious figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
