The murders of the Black Museum
1870-1970
by Gordon Honeycombe
The famous Black Museum in New Scotland Yard contains a unique collection of exhibits, photographs and other items connected with some of the most famous British crimes and criminals of the last hundred years.
Fifty of these crimes, all murders, are detailed herein - case histories presenting an utterly compelling picture of a century of murder, manslaughter and attempted assassination. The crimes and characters of such notorious murderers as Jack the Ripper, Dr Crippen, George Smith, Heath, Haigh, Christie, the Krays, the Hoseins and many others are revealed fully and factually.
In most cases, the true facts are not generally known; and this fascinatingly informative textbook on murder provides a grim insight into the minds and methods of men - and women - who kill.
