Reseña del libro "The Life and Career of Dr. William Palmer of Rugeley (en Inglés)"

THE BAD BOY OF RUGELEYIn 1856, Dr. William Palmer made history when he was hanged for poisoning his best friend. It was not only the first trial involving strychnine, but the first that was moved because of the extensive publicity it received in the new penny newspapers that were exploding in popularity.In 1925, George Fletcher published his lifetime's research on the case. Drawing on his family's ties to the area, he visited Staffordshire repeatedly over several decades. He interviewed many of the people connected with the case and collected their stories and observations. His biography of Palmer was the first to feature new information about him, his murders, and the controversies surrounding his trial.This new edition of "The Life and Career of Dr. Palmer of Rugeley" brings Fletcher's biography back into print with the original illustrations and photographs. It has been carefully annotated to flesh out the story and explain the social and cultural references unfamiliar to today's readers.Fletcher's biography is part of "The Rugeley Poisoner" trilogy that includes two books published in 1856: "The Illustrated Life and Career of William Palmer" and "The Illustrated Times Trial of William Palmer." With these three books, true-crime fans can experience early Victorian Britain where money was king, reputations ruled, and where evil lurked in the heart of a benign doctor.
