Tomorrow, July 11th, author Selden Richardson will speak at the Library of Virginia, as part of the "Books on Broad" series, on his new book The Tri-State Gang in Richmond: Murder and Robbery in the Great Depression. Richardson made extensive use of records found at the Library of Virginia for his work. Today's Out of the Box blog post provides examples of those records found in our local, state, and newspaper collections. Check them out before heading over for the book talk on Wednesday at 5:30.
