Dillinger: The Untold Story, Anniversary Edition

by: G. Russell Girardin, William J. Helmer
Very well crafted. Has the feel of the era throughout. Lots of research. Hard to put down. Loved it and recommend it. (I have the 1994 edition and can't speak for the new expanded edition. I just re-read it due to the Johnny Depp hoopla happening now). It flows like good fiction.

I'm also a fan of Robert Nash's "Dillinger Dossier" if your looking for more J.D. literature.He takes the story to a whole new level.

The Vendetta: Special Agent Melvin Purvis, John Dillinger, and Hoover's FBI in the Age of Gangsters

by: Alston Purvis
A lot of books about John Dillinger, some good, some not so good. But Purvis? What about the guy who put a stop to the original Public Enemy Number 1?
It's not unusual to have not heard much about the guy who didn't win the pop culture contest over the long haul. Look at how many books are written about Napoleon compared to those written about the man who defeated him at Waterloo, the Duke of Wellington. For that matter, what about Frank Hamer--you know, the law officer who stopped Bonnie and Clyde.

Dillinger's Wild Ride: The Year That Made America's Public Enemy Number One

by: Elliott J. Gorn
I like to think of myself as a more than a casual John Dillinger buff. I've been riveted by the Indiana badman since my teens and later, as a sometime newspaper writer, I traveled throughout Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin visiting sites that were famous simply because Johnnie had been there...if only for a little while.

While researching a three-page travel article covering those sites (published in the Chicago Tribune in 1994) I became acquainted with Ursula Patzke, a hostage in a particularly livley bank robbery in Racine, Wisconsin, Emil Wanatka, Jr.

Don't Call Us Molls: Women of the John Dillinger Gang

by: Ellen Poulsen
The book is quite good and detailed, overly detailed. It was as if after years of research the writer felt compelled to put in every note on each subject she had. Could be improved immensely by condensing and tightening the writing. Still, it is a worthwhile addition to the study of the 1930s crime era.

If you've read other books on the outlaws themselves, you realize this book is more from the women's perspective and doesn't always jive with other accounts as to what has generally been reported and documented.
