Very interesting and well written true story of two ne'er do wells who decide to burn down buildings on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Except for the chapter devoted to Bonnie and Clyde, this book was engrossing. This is a good book to read if you're feeling depressed, and have nowhere to turn, no one has it as bad as these two.

Interesting story.. It was just a little slow and predictable for me.
