First UK edition, first impression (previously published in the USA). 312pp. Black cloth-covered boards, silver lettering on spine. 8vo. Covers a little tired, rubbed, and a little rounded at spine ends, and very slightly bowed. Upper text block edge dust dulled, remaining edges lightly spotted. Internally neat, clean, bright and tight.

A true crime anthology, analysing seventeen historical criminal cases from the Victorian era to the Second World War; Lustgarten tends to focus on the legal battles arising from the crimes a rather than detection and showcases masterclass-quality legal advocacy of the likes of Sir Patrick Hastings, Sir Edward Marshall Hall, Sir Edward Clarke and Norman Birkett.
