Stories of historical murders on the South Shore

Author

John F. Gallagher

Thanks for visiting my web site. Writing has been a great experience for me on many levels. The three books I have written are the first in a series of books focusing on obscure but significant murders that happened in the South Shore area of Massachusetts more than one hundred years ago. I created this site to provide readers a preview of the books to generate interest and, of course, to promote them. Should you decide to read any of the books, I hope you find them interesting and enjoyable. I look forward to meeting you at one of the local author events I will speak at soon. – John

My Books

"This book made history very accessible, and interesting. Those from Hingham will enjoy the local details included in this rather dramatic murder case, and even those from afar will find interesting nuggets as it relates to the Massachusetts judicial system in the 1800s."
