The Devil Is A Gentleman

Here is one that is on my list to read.
I finished J.C. Hallmans' book, The Chess Artist, a few months ago and enjoyed it. Even though Hallmans' writing is sometimes long winded, it is out of a desire to provide plenty of detail, and this book is engaging from beginning to end, using the more recently popularized story form of non-fiction. If you are a chess player or interested in game lore than I would recommend his first book, The Chess Artist.
His more recent book, The Devil Is A Gentleman, was made
during 10 months of research. "Hallman met fundamentalist Christian wrestlers and dog-breeding monks; he joined the Church of Scientology, trekked Druid circles and talked with
members of UFO cults. "
Cool.
