FOUL DEEDS AND SUSPICIOUS DEATHS ON THE YORKSHIRE COAST.

Softcover. Mankind often demonstrates the full range of emotions, ranging from extreme gentleness, to the most brutal savagery, being capable of bringing to bear extremes of ferocity in attack or defence. Passion, in one form or another, is often the driving force behind this violence, be it in the form of love, hatred, fear or jealousy. In this book, the reader encounters the unleashing of these passions and the deadly results of that release. From a roman sentry stabbed in the back and his murderer lying dead beside him, his throat torn out by his victim's dog, to relatively modern murders of friends, loved ones, or hated rivals in love and business. The geographical scope of this fascinating book extends from Marske and Whitby in the north, to Bridlington in the south. A fascinating insight into the less well known history of coastal Yorkshire. Illus., Index. 192pp. 8vo. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F.
