STINIE Murder on the Common

Paperback. Foreword by Lord Elwyn-Jones. An absorbing account of both Stinie Morrison's dubious conviction for the murder of Leon Beron on Clapham Common on New Year's Day 1911, and the Edwardian East End community. Andrew Rose argues for a miscarriage of justice drawing on information gained from access to the Home Office files which had been officially closed until 1990.
