Memoirs of the Northern Imposter or Prince of Swindlers is a book written by James George Semple in 1786. It is a first-person account of Semple's life, detailing his adventures and deceptions.

The book covers Semple's early life, his various scams and schemes, and his eventual arrest and imprisonment. The memoir is written in a lively and engaging style, with Semple describing his exploits in great detail and offering insights into the mindset of a professional con artist.
