Description
The Man Who Mailed Himself Out of Jail is the incredible, true story of the World’s greatest prison escape artist, Richard Lee McNair. Many know the story of the killer’s spectacular escape from a Louisiana penitentiary in April 2006 and his near-capture shortly after by police on railroad tracks. But for the first time, we get the full story behind McNair’s escape and his time on the lam.
Now held at the Supermax in Colorado, Richard McNair has given Canadian crime reporter Byron Christopher exclusive access to his story.
After nearly five years of research and travel across the U.S. and Canada, the author takes readers on a wild ride. They’re with McNair every step of the way, through his three escapes. They see how the Oklahoma native avoided bloodhounds, search helicopters and a massive police dragnet. They feel the joys and defeats of McNair's time on the lam, get a play-by-account of his capture by the R.C.M.P. in the fall of 2007 ... and with proprietary information about the 1987 North Dakota homicide, readers get a front row seat to the murder that put McNair behind bars.
