Description:
N.Y.: Macmillian Publishing Co,, 1956. 1st edition, so stated. Fine in dust jacket with some minor wear at folds, very light chipping at head and foot of spine, lightly soiled at rear. Although both corners of front flap are clipped, the $3.75 price is intact. Includes a frontis portrait plate. In this unique biographical adventure, Charles Norman has gone to original sources to give us Thomas Griffiths Wainewright's life, his homicidal activities, his ingenious forgeries, his suspenseful trials and final retribution. Thomas Griffiths Wainewright was a journalist, critic, wit, forger and murderer; a friend of Charles Lamb; he hobnobbed with Coleridge, Dickens, DeQuincey. Charles Dickens visited him in Newgate prison. He also murdered his uncle, his mother-in-law and his sister-in-law -- he was apparently averse to harming strangers.. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. Illus. by Bock, Vera. Book.
