Catch Me If You Can: The True Story of a Real Fake
Registered by rem_BBS-540553 on 12/1/2005
5 journalers for this copy...
Amazing true story of the most extraordinary liar in the history of fun and profit. (from the front cover)
I've had to reregister this book as there were problems with the initial entry (couldn't edit it and couldn't see all the words I'd typed in) so this is 'Take 2'
I really enjoyed this book and it was a quick read. His audacity takes your breath away. Only a teen-aged adult would have the balls to do the things he did.
Of interest: his current website -- www.abagnale.com
I know someone in Aust has this on their wishlist so will send it on.

Hmmm....I hope this wasn't sent to the wrong person as I don't have this on my wishlist! In fact I had passed on my own copy to Sabavana as an RABCK a few months earlier. I also wasn't expecting a third Secret Santa package. Either way, thanks a lot, but just to make sure that someone else hasn't missed out, I will check with mistlerose!

Thanks so much leeny37 for sending this to me...it arrived early this morning. It is very exciting to receive a book from my wish-list, and I can't wait to read this one!
Whoa! This was such a fast paced read, I just couldn't put this book down.
This is a truly amazing story and you can't help but admire Abagnale, he is just so bold and resourceful, and has such a brilliant mind. I think one of the things that amazed me most about this story was how young Abagnale was when he committed these crimes. It makes you wonder what he could have achieved had he turned his mind to good rather than crime.
Thanks again for the opportunity to read this book leeny37 (and cathyinoz), I have offered this book as a RABCK to someone else who has this on their wishlist and am awaiting their reply.
