"What do you think of when you hear about someone on the FBI's Most Wanted List? Hardened criminals, without morals or any sense of right and wrong, ready to solve a dispute with a gun, right? But what if things weren't that cut and dried? What if the nice guy you hired to hook up your cable was Number Seven on the FBI's list? Les Rogge looks and acts just like your next-door neighbor. Yet in twenty years he robbed more than 30 banks without firing a shot. Caught and put in jail twice, he escaped - and went sailing around the Caribbean with his wife and dog! In Wanted: Gentleman Bank Robber: The True Story of Leslie Ibsen Rogge, One of the FBI's Most Elusive Criminals, Les details his adventures from Alaska to Antigua, the Chesapeake to Cancun. But it all came to a halt when a fourteen-year-old in Guatemala forced him to turn himself in. Few felons have been as forthcoming about their successes, failures, robbery techniques, passion for sailing vessels... and love for his wife." --Publisher's website.

These books are usually not my type of reads. I am very selective with the nonfiction genre, so it was interesting seeing how I would like this one. It was definitely an intriguing look into the life of of Rogge. For me, it's really hard to review a non-fiction book because you cannot say much without giving away too much of what readers should read. What I can say is that I enjoyed having a look into the life and crimes of a Bank Robber, and recommend it to those who are interested in reading the same!
