Black Dahlia : murder, monsters, and madness in midcentury hollywood

Mann, William J.2026
Books
The brutal murder of Elizabeth Short - better known as the Black Dahlia - in 1947 has been in the public consciousness for nearly eighty years, yet no serious study of the crime has ever been published. Illuminating and captivating, New York Times bestselling author of Tinseltown and Bogart offers the first definitive account of the Black Dahlia murder - the most famous unsolved true crime case in American history - which humanizes the victim and situates the notorious case within an anxious, postwar country grappling with new ideas, demographics, and technologies.
