Description
Infamous Cheshire explores the darker side of this idyllic county, where murders in sleepy villages, royal scandals ancient and modern and the antics of showbiz personalities reveal that all is not as tranquil as it may seem.
In his new book Bob Burrows digs deep into forgotten tales of villainy and crime, deceit and death, as well as throwing new light on more recent and well-remembered events - including the Great Train Robbery's connections with the county, Britain's biggest financial fraud, the IRA attack in Warrington, the plane that crashed in the centre of Stockport, and even the story behind one of Cheshire's roads - designated the most dangerous in Britain.
Infamous Cheshire will enthral and fascinate anyone who would like to discover more about the unexpected history of Cheshire.
