"A Century of London Murders and Executions brings together every murder committed in London in the twentieth century which resulted in a judicial execution. They include the case of the infamous Dr Crippen, executed in 1910 for poisoning and dismembering his wife in Islington; Frederick Robertson, who murdered his three children and hid their bodies beneath the floorboards of his home in 1913; Peter Johnson, who murdered his best friend during an argument in 1952; and Ruth Ellis, the last woman to hang in Britain after being found guilty of shooting her lover outside the Magdala public house in 1955. John J. Eddleston's carefully researched, well-illustrated and enthralling text will appeal to anyone intrested in the shady side of Britain's capital city, and should give much food for thought" -- back cover.
