Softcover. True crime from the files of The Herald, Evening Times and Sunday Herald. For more thsan 100 years Glasgow was known worldwide for its gangsters, villains and violence. From the slums and deprived areas of the city came the hard men, the gangs and godfathers. And names like Thompson, Manuel, Bible John and Ferris became known and feared by the ordinary citizens of Glasgow. But they were not the only hard men in the city. Glasgow's crimefighters, from police on the beat to High Court judges were also tough, and determined that those who tried to terrorise the city would end up where they belonged, locked up in Barlinnie. Illus., Index. 192pp. trade p/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F.
