Description

Frank W Abagnale's remarkable story is one of deception and daring. As a master forger, impostor, and con man, he lived a life of luxury and excess, using multiple aliases to evade detection. From piloting a Pan Am jet to posing as a hospital administrator, Abagnale's exploits are both astonishing and hilarious. With a trail of $2.5 million in forged checks and a reputation that spanned 26 countries and all 50 US states, Abagnale was known to the authorities as 'The Skywayman'. His incredible escapes, including one from an aeroplane, make for a thrilling tale of financial foul play. This book tells the story of Abagnale's remarkable career, from his early days as a con man to his eventual capture and transformation into a leading authority on financial crime.
