520    "The intriguing criminal cases of pioneer forensics expert
       John Vance, "Canada's Sherlock Holmes." Heralded 
       internationally as "Canada's Sherlock Holmes," John F.C.B.
       Vance (1884-1964) was Vancouver's, and British Columbia's,
       first forensic investigator. Despite his innocuous 
       demeanour, during his forty-two-year career Vance helped 
       police detectives to determine murder from suicide as well
       as solve hit-and-runs, safe-crackings, and some of the 
       most sensational murder cases of the twentieth century. As
       the City Analyst, first for Vancouver (beginning in 1907) 
       and then for the Province and later the Dominion, Vance 
       was constantly called upon to use his skills in serology, 
       toxicology, firearms, arson, trace evidence, document 
       analysis, and autopsy to solve crime. His skills and 
       analytic abilities were so effective that in 1934 there 
       were seven attempts on his life, and for a time, he and 
       his family were under constant police guard from criminals
       afraid to go up against him in court. Vance was on the 
       forefront of forensics, often inventing his own equipment 
       when none was available. In the 1930s he received 
       worldwide press coverage for inventing an ultra-violet ray
       machine used to detect counterfeit money, drugs, and 
       bodily fluids, and also spent years developing "the Robot 
       Nose," a mechanical bloodhound that traced criminals by 
       their scent. Blood, Sweat, and Fear delves into many of 
       Vance's most notorious cases, his groundbreaking forensic 
       techniques, and his personal struggle against his growing 
       list of enemies: a must-read for true crime and history 
       buffs alike."--|cProvided by publisher.
