About the Book

Michigan's past has a more sinister side than what's commonly displayed on roadside historical markers. In Dark Side of the Mitten: Crimes of the Powerful and Powerful Criminals in Michigan's Past and Present, author Tom Carr presents a wide array of stories about Michigan's gritty and gruesome past, all told with his signature humor and irreverence.

Dark Side of the Mitten is a follow-up to Carr's best-selling Blood on the Mitten: Infamous Michigan Murders, 1700s-Present and MI BAD: Robbers, Cutthroats and Thieves in Michigan's Past and Present.



About the Author :
THIS IS TOM CARR'S THIRD BOOK FOR MISSION POINT PRESS on history and/or true crime in Michigan. Before Covid-19 hit, he travelled the state telling many of the stories in his books, and some that aren't, at libraries and service club meetings. He's looking forward to resuming that after the pandemic subsides. Carr is an independent writer and journalist in Northern Michigan who spent 25 years in daily newspapers, primarily the Traverse City Record-Eagle. He's won journalistic awards for his investigative reporting, feature writing, breaking news and humor columns. Carr often covered police, courts and crime. As a freelancer, Carr has branched out into other media and has reported and produced several stories for Interlochen Public Radio and has had his work broadcast on NPR and Michigan Radio, as well. His work has appeared in the Detroit Free Press, the New York Daily News, traverseticker.com, Traverse Magazine and other media. Tom Carr is author of Blood on the Mitten: Infamous Michigan Murders, 1700s-Present, MI BAD: Robbers, Cutthroats & Thieves in Michigan's Past & Present and was a contributing writer for Inside Upnorth, a Traverse City area travel guide published by Mission Point Press. Carr lives and quarantines near Buckley, Michi-gan with his wife, Maria, where they raised their two sons.

Review :

"[G]risly, goofy, poignant dispatches expertly summated by a skilled veteran reporter who's no stranger to the back stairs habituated by a true sleuth. Story telling at its fully imagined best." - Ben Hamper, bestselling author of Rivethead


"Mild-mannered Midwestern Michigan is the land of lakeside cottages, auto industries, pasties-and murder? ... At times morbid and surprisingly colloquial, this collection serves to enlighten Michigan's present with the truth of its past and sheds a respectful light on the memory of its victims." - Great Lakes, Great Reads, Historical Society of Michigan


"Author Tom Carr shows his reportorial chops with crisp, concise prose enhanced by a multitude of historical photographs, including miscellaneous graphics. Carr blends interesting content with some visually gruesome graphics. This collection is one that Michigan history bibliophiles will want on their shelves." - Joseph Heywood, author of the Woods Cop Mysteries
