Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Fort Worth: Crime and Consequence in the Depression examines the violence, hardship, and criminal investigations that shaped Fort Worth during the darkest years of the Great Depression. Drawn from extensive research in newspaper archives, court records, prison files, death certificates, and… police documents, the book reconstructs real homicide cases and the changing world of law enforcement in Depression-era Cowtown. As unemployment, poverty, labor unrest, gambling, bootlegging, and organized crime spread across North Texas, Fort Worth police officers were forced to confront a rising tide of violence. At the center of many of these investigations were homicide detectives A. C. Howerton and D. S. Harris, whose work helped professionalize criminal investigations in the city during the 1930s and 1940s. The book follows murders and investigations that unfolded in tourist camps, labor camps, dance halls, alleyways, rooming houses, and oilfield communities. Included are killings sparked by jealousy, greed, desperation, labor disputes, robbery, and revenge - cases solved through witness interviews, persistence, and instinct long before modern forensic science became common. Among the stories are the torch murder of Roy Hawthorne near Lake Worth, violence surrounding the Eagle Mountain Dam timber camps, Christmas Eve killings, Depression-era domestic murders, gambling disputes, and forgotten crimes that once dominated Fort Worth newspaper headlines before fading into obscurity. Written in a direct, historically grounded style without sensationalism, Fort Worth: Crime and Consequence in the Depression is both a true crime history and a portrait of a city struggling through one of the most difficult periods in its history.
