Catch Me If You Can by Frank Abagnale
The Amazing True Story of the Most Extraordinary Liar in the History of Fun and Profit!
He wrote US$2.5 million in bad cheques, practiced law without a licence, practiced medicine with no medical training, co-piloted a Pan-Am jet with a fake licence, taught at a college though he was a high school drop-out, and managed to outwit and outrage the police of 26 foreign countries, all before he turned 21.
After conning his way around the world, Frank was jailed and released five years later, only after he agreed to work, unpaid, for the US government sharing his knowledge of fraud with them in order to help them prevent it. He is now one of the world's foremost experts in secure documents and fraud prevention.
This is the hilarious story of Frank Abagnale's stranger-than-fiction international escapades, and his ingenious escapes - including one from an airplane.
