4.9/5 (14151 ratings)

Description:Pennsylvania may have been founded by peaceful Quakers, but the sect's pacifist ways didn't dampen the state's enthusiasm for violent scandals--or capital punishment. In Pretty Evil Pennsylvania, historical true crime author Stephanie Hoover recounts the crimes committed by nine of the Keystone State's most violent female criminals from the 1850s through the 1930s. The stories of these law-breaking ladies, from forger Julia Lippencott to murderess Irene Schroeder, are complex and nuanced. On occasion you may find yourself wondering if the crimes--matricide, kidnapping, horse theft--were justified. In other cases there can be no doubt of the presence of mens rea, a guilty mind. Many of these women were dismissed as luckless lonely hearts or homely housewives-right up until the time that their cases proved interesting enough to sell newspapers. They then magically transformed into heartless, alluring she-devils who knew how to handle a gun or manipulate men into all manner of evil deeds, even murder.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
