SUMMARY:Law and Order for Hire in Virginia
DESCRIPTION:Violence and lawlessness plagued late nineteenth-and early twentieth-century Virginia\, and with no\nbureau of investigation or state police force\, the Old Dominion relied on the Baldwin-Felts\nDetective Agency to solve a multitude of crimes. Formed by William G. Baldwin and Thomas L.\nFelts\, the agency\, headquartered in Roanoke\, was charged with investigating some of the state’s most\nsensational murder cases. Among these were the brutal killing of Fannie McCue\, wife of the former\nmayor of Charlottesville; the slaughter of a mountain family in Buchanan County; the shot gunning\nof Louise Beattie\, the young wife of a wealthy Richmond playboy; and the unprecedented shootout\nin the Carroll County courthouse that left five dead. Author and historian Phillip Andrew Gibbs\nrecounts how the Agency’s detectives who worked these cases succeeded in bringing some of the\nstate’s most heinous criminals to justice in his new book entitled Law and Order for Hire in Virginia.
