The listing, William Edward Hickman- Dairy of a Madman - E-Book has ended.

This is a seven chapter e-book authored by me on the notorious 1927 murder of Marian Parker by William Edward Hickman in Alahambra, California.

The work traces the life of Hickman from his birth in rural Arkansas to the kidnapping and killing of the daughter of a bank president who Hickman harbored a personal grudge against.

The final chapter is an interview with the nephew of Hickman and his family's take on the condition, environment and circumstances that led to the nefarious crime of the brilliant but tortured Hickman.

Book will be delivered to you in a digital format.

Illustrated with fourteen photos and graphics.

Thanks for looking.
