Softcover / Paperback. Condizione: Fine. No Jacket. First edition. Softcover. 19 heinous crimes from the County's past which are distinguished by a common thread - violent and untimely death. The author describes the physical brutality of the ultimate crime and the tragic, often pathetic circumstances of both victims and murderers. The motives are varied and often complex, ranging from passion and sheer animal rage to straightforward criminal greed. The cases are drawn from all areas of Lancashire. They include the double murder committed by the Parsee; the old lady battered to death with a hammer while her murderess was "in one of my funny moods"; the complicated wartime case of the merchant marine officer killed in his cabin aboard ship at Salford docks; and the blond boy-killer of Wigan. Here too, are the men of the local police force, spending their lives fighting crime and occasionally paying the highest price. Illus. + Index. 128pp. trade size softcover.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. For fifty five years, generations of the Pierrepoint family served as fearsome hangmen in England. The dynasty began in 1901 with Henry Pierrepoint. He was followed into the gruesome profession by his brother Thomas and in time, his eldest son Albert. Between them, they carried out an amazing 900 executions. This book recounts the lives and tales of the Pierrepoint family; their reasons for taking up the profession and the inside details of the execution cases and the deeds themselves. Insight is shed on the feuds and intense rivalry between fellow hangmen as well as the notorious cases that kept the family firmly in the spotlight. With extracts from diaries and comments on the families representation in the media, this book provides a fascinating look at a profession that is long gone, but certainly not forgotten. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
