Murder and dark deeds shadowed the extravagance of the Gilded Age in the Berkshires of Massachusetts. In the summer of 1893; a tall and well-dressed burglar plundered the massive summer mansions of the upper crust. A visit from President Teddy Roosevelt in 1902 ended in tragedy when a trolley car smashed into the presidential carriage; killing a Secret Service agent. Shocking the nation; a psychotic millworker opened fire on a packed streetcar; leaving three dead and five wounded. From axe murders to botched bank jobs; author Andrew Amelinckx dredges up the forgotten underbelly of the Berkshires with unforgettable stories of greed; jealousy and madness from the Gilded Age.
