“Schroeder deals with his miscreants and their fraudulent adventures in a delightful and admirably deadpan style.”  Sam Debrowski, The Vancouver Province

“Schroeder tells a fascinating, fast-paced story, hugely entertaining and always well researched. A master storyteller!  Martha Kolloron,  Halifax Daily News

“This delightful follow-up to “Scams, Scandals & Skulduggery” offers us more fabulously entertaining stories of both past and present crooks. I read this book in one afternoon and felt guilty when I finished – I could read these stories forever. If you enjoy exploring some great criminal history, this is for you! And fans of CBC Radio’s BASIC BLACK SHOW would rate this a must-have.”  Jennifer Wall, Amazon Book Reviews.

“Schroeder’s at it again with this follow-up volume to Scams, Scandals & Skulduggery. This is good stuff through and through. It spotlights the fiendish cleverness of the human mind and the amazing gullibility of the general public.

If human nature amuses you, check this one out.”  Tom Knapp, Rambles Magazine
