Many years ago, I was a Criminology major at the U of Calif (Biserkeley)
and one of the cases we studied was of William Heirens. The book I read
was "Catch Me Before I Kill More" - found info on it (and serial
killers) at the following website:

http://www.crimelibrary.com/serials/what/whatcon.htm

It also lists other names: Boston Strangler, Peter Kurten, Henry Lee
Lucas, Carl Panzram, Edmund Kemper....don't know all of their dates...
