This fascinating book includes the cases of some of Britain s most famous criminals, among them the infamous Dr. Crippen, executed in 1910 for poisoning and dismembering his wife; Neville Heath, who was hanged at Pentonville Prison for the brutal murder of Margery Gardner in 1946; and Ruth Ellis, the last woman to hang in Britain after being found guilty of shooting her lover outside a pub in 1955. John J. Eddleston's carefully researched, well-illustrated, and enthralling text will appeal to anyone interested in the shady side of Britain's capital city."
