Former Prussian soldier Herman `Baron’ Lamm (1890-1930) adapted his military training to a much less noble occupation after moving to America, developing a reputation as one of history's most brilliant and efficient bank robbers. This first full-length biography traces his criminal exploits and his pioneering use of concepts like `casing’ a bank and planning escape routes.
