In the Footsteps of East London Crime & Curiosities

Overview

To many authors the only East End crimes of note are those that concern Jack the Ripper or the Kray Twins - both of which are covered in other books in this series. Here the reader will discover a selection of other criminal activities from piracy, to theft and the fencing of stolen goods, to the humorous cases of the burglar who fell asleep on the job, and the escapologist who ran away. Added to this is a potpourri of curiosities unique to the area. There are characters to meet such as Joseph Merrick (The Elephant Man), Captain James Cook, and Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson. Strange events like the banquet held in a tunnel under the Thames, and the boy who was carried off by an escaped Bengal tiger and lived to tell the tale. With 35 places to read about and explore, East London has never seemed so interesting!
