Drawn from long-forgotten assize court files, judges' notes and inquest depositions — and with contemporary newspaper reports adding flavour to the mix — these are the most comprehensive, authenticated accounts of the cases ever published. The villains featured here include house-breakers and highway robbers; mothers who killed their children and children who killed their parents; murderers of policemen and partners; nearly all whom ended up swinging from the hangman's rope. This is the third instalment of the author's Cheshire true-crime series, in which he has re-visited over 200 crimes spanning four centuries. The others being \"A Vintage Casebook of Cheshire Crime\" and  \"Cheshire's Execution Files\".\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DB Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":35042287878189,"sku":"9781780915531","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/2357\/5085\/files\/9781780915531.jpg?v=1728560675","url":"https:\/\/www.thegreatbritishbookshop.co.uk\/products\/horrid-crimes-of-bygone-cheshire","provider":"The Great British Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
