MURDER IN MIND

Softcover. A throat cut by candlelight in a Ludlow hotel, an angry stabbing at Market Drayton, a poisoned pie in Whixall and a gamekeeper shot at Bridgnorth. There were not many murders in 19th century Shropshire but Victorian local newspapers reported every inquest and trial in gory detail. All these cases are drawn from the 'Shropshire Chronicle' between 1840 and 1898. Illus. 124pp. 8vo softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Nr. F. with no creasing to covers.
