Book Synopsis
Since Otto Wood was seven years old, he had been in trouble with the law, and was notorious for his escapes from the law. He wrote his life history while serving a thirty-year sentence for killing a man in 1923. His hopes were that the book would help a lost soul from going down the same road as he. While, he did not take his own advice, for the last time, he again escaped prison and was killed in a shootout with the Law on December 31, 1930.
