Human Skin Books and Desert Rat Scrap Books

Originally published as Marginalia Podcast in November of 2016, this is our sample/pilot episode for Books in the Wild. In this episode we cover the gruesome book of John Horwood, a man whose punishment for his crimes didn't stop at just execution. We also go into the tall tales of Harry Oliver, self-proclaimed Writer, Editor, Publisher, Distributor, Artist, Owner, Mirage Salesman, Secessionist, and Press Agent for The Desert Rat Scrap Book, a single broadsheet newspaper printed quarterly from 1945 to 1967.
