Another good history book, although it is out-of-print and you will have to find it in a library, is CENTURY OF THE DETECTIVE by Jurgen Thorwald. The first half of the book is all on fingerprints and it reads like a novel, not like a dry history book. |

Try these web sites for a start: onin.com/fp/fphistory.html ridgesandfurrows.homestead.com Use a search engine such as google.com and use key words: fingerprint history See if your library can get you a copy of: Fingerprints: The Origins of Crime Detection and the Murder Case That Launched Forensic Science by Colin Beavan Hope that gets you started. Good Luck! |
