    Synopsis
    The uproarious, bestselling true story of the world's most sought-after con man, immortalized by Leonardo DiCaprio in DreamWorks' feature film of the same name, from the author of Scam Me If You Can . Frank W. Abagnale, alias Frank Williams, Robert Conrad, Frank Adams, and Robert Monjo, was one of the most daring con men, forgers, imposters, and escape artists in history. In his brief but notorious criminal career, Abagnale donned a pilot's uniform and copiloted a Pan Am jet, masqueraded as the supervising resident of a hospital, practiced law without a license, passed himself off as a college sociology professor, and cashed over $2.5 million in forged checks, all before he was twenty-one. Known by the police of twenty-six foreign countries and all fifty states as "The Skywayman," Abagnale lived a sumptuous life on the lam--until the law caught up with him. Now recognized as the nation's leading authority on financial foul play, Abagnale is a charming rogue whose hilarious, stranger-than-fiction international escapades, and ingenious escapes-including one from an airplane-make Catch Me If You Can an irresistible tale of deceit.

        Frank Abagnale-Wow!!!!

        This a very compelling account of a very brazen individual who was able to use the system to his advantage. The audacity of Frank Abagnale is limitless. Of course, I find myself laughing at his adeptness and ability to time and again use the system as it was then. No, he's not a hero, but his awareness of the weaknesses in our system and culture at that young an age is amazing. I'm sorry that it took me this long to purchase this book. What a great read.

      • A tremendous book

        If you lined the movie, the book is a must read. A tremendous story, pulled out of real life beautifully written in a way that makes it very hard to put down.

      • Great Read!

        I saw a clip on You Tube of an old Johnny Carson show when he had this guy on his show - he was hilarious! I had to buy the book, and it's been a great read as well! Love that this shop still has a book from the 80's in great conidtion!
