The classic 1940 study of con men and con games that Luc Sante in Salon called “a bonanza of wild but credible stories, told concisely with deadpan humor, as sly and rich in atmosphere as anything this side of Mark Twain.” “Of all the grifters, the confidence man is the aristocrat,” wrote David Maurer, a proposition he definitely proved in The Big Con, one of the most colorful, well-researched, and entertaining works of criminology ever written. A professor of linguistics who specialized in underworld argot, Maurer won the trust of hundreds of swindlers, who let him in on not simply their language but their folkways and the astonishingly complex and elaborate schemes whereby unsuspecting marks, hooked by their own greed and dishonesty, were “taken off” – i.e. cheated—of thousands upon thousands of dollars. The Big Con is a treasure trove of American lingo (the write, the rag, the payoff, ropers, shills, the cold poke, the convincer, to put on the send) and indelible characters (Yellow Kid Weil, Barney the Patch, the Seldom Seen Kid, Limehouse Chappie, Larry the Lug). It served as the source for the Oscar-winning film The Sting.

Danny is unable to speak a word. The unfortunate victim of a disability that doctors seem unable to diagnose, Danny has always had trouble communicating with the people around him. As a frustrated toddler who sometimes experiences violent outbursts, it sometimes seems impossible that Danny will be able to interact with his peers. But through patience, love, and a little bit of faith, Danny and his mother will learn how to overcome life's trials and discover a bond that needs no words. In her second novel, The Unspoken Story, author Caroline Alden explores the reaches of a mother's devotion to her son, and shows the world that love really can speak louder than words.
