Encompassing nearly 2,000 years of heists and tunnel jobs, break-ins and escapes, A Burglar's Guide to the City offers an unexpected blueprint to the criminal possibilities in the world all around us. You'll never see the city the same way again.
At the core of A Burglar's Guide to the City is an unexpected and thrilling insight: how any building transforms when seen through the eyes of someone hoping to break into it. Studying architecture the way a burglar would, Geoff Manaugh takes readers through walls, down elevator shafts, into panic rooms, up to the buried vaults of banks, and out across the rooftops of an unsuspecting city. With the help of FBI Special Agents, reformed bank robbers, private security consultants, the L.A.P.D. Air Support Division, and architects past and present, the book dissects the built environment from both sides of the law. Whether picking padlocks or climbing the walls of high-rise apartments, finding gaps in a museum's surveillance routine or discussing home invasions in ancient Rome, A Burglar's Guide to the City has the tools, the tales, and the x-ray vision you need to see architecture as nothing more than an obstacle that can be outwitted and undercut. Full of real-life heists-both spectacular and absurd-A Burglar's Guide to the City ensures readers will never enter a bank again without imagining how to loot the vault or walk down the street without planning the perfect getaway.Binding Type: Paperback

Beautiful and sturdy!
Color: Gold, Color: Gold
This is such a nice bar cart, especially for the money! It’s not too small and each shelf has a good weight capacity, so it holds a good number of bottles. The color is a nice gold but the rivets are silver. It was easy to put together. My husband did it on his own unless than an hour.

Just an ABSOLUTELY PERFECT Bar Cart!
Style: Grey Oak, Size: 14.17"D x 37.01"W x 35.24"H
Completely blown away with this cart! It FAR exceeded my expectations! A little more expensive than similar items, but the reviews sold me on it! Approximately 45 minutes to assemble from unboxing. Really good instructions. Tools included. I put together lots of these Lego Projects, so I can get through pretty quickly. This is a HEAVY, STURDY, SOLID, WELL MADE piece! All of the metal and wood surfaces are smooth and clean! Its much sturdier than it looks in the ad pics. It's also a little larger than I expected, even though I did measure it all out before ordering. I had ZERO problems building this thing. It's beautiful. Lines and surfaces are my base motif, and this fits the bill perfectly! Im not a big fan of the handle but I did go ahead and install. This cart fits seemlessly in with other furniture materials and fabrics. Can be tucked neatly into a tight space, or in my case ... is anchoring its own spot under some artwork somewhat solo along a large wall. You absolutely get your money's worth with this one. An absolute score with Two Thumbs Up!
