boserulrich , The Gardner Heist: The True Story of the World's Largest Unsolved Art Theft.

We are in for a treat! Award-winning journalist Ulrich Boser will tell (almost) all about the infamous 1990 robbery of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. Ulrich is a master storyteller with a major connection to the investigation of this infamous art theft! His presentation will be based on his amazing new book, The Gardner Heist: The True Story of the World's Largest Unsolved Art Theft. After thousands of leads, hundreds of interviews, and a $5 million reward, not one painting has been recovered, nor a single person arrested since the theft in 1990. Many passionate and dedicated investigators have taken the investigation of the heist into their own hands. One man in particular, Harold Smith, one of the world’s greatest art detectives, made solving this mystery his life’s work and believed he was just steps away from cracking the case, before his death a few years ago. Journalist Ulrich Boser spent significant time with Smith and has been granted access to all Smith’s research and notes. (booksense)… (more)
