Why is the highwayman largely perceived as a romantic, glamorous and gallant figure? How is it that men who were really nothing more than bandits, often gratuitously violent, and sometimes murderers and rapists, have become the swashbuckling heroes of history? Informative, stimulating, and entertaining, this book will appeal to anyone interested in the dramatic, murky underworld of history.
Stand and Deliver!: A History of Highway Robbery
