A DAILY EXPRESS BOOK OF THE YEAR REVOLUTIONARY. CONSPIRATOR.
JAIL-BREAKER. FUGITIVE. DUELLIST. RADICAL. AND KILLER. ON 8
December 1854, Emmanuel Barthelemy visited 73 Warren Street in the
heart of radical London for the very last time. Within half an
hour, two men were dead. The newspapers of Victorian England were
soon in a frenzy. Who was this foreigner come to British shores to
slay two upstanding subjects? But Barthelemy was no ordinary
criminal... Marc Mulholland reveals the true story of one of
nineteenth-century London's most notorious murderers and
revolutionaries. Following in Barthelemy's footsteps, he leads us
from the barricades of the French capital to the English fireside
of Karl Marx, and the dangling noose of London's Newgate prison,
shining a light into a dark underworld of conspiracy, rebellion and
fatal idealism. The Murderer of Warren Street is a thrilling
portrait of a troubled man in troubled times - full of resonance
for our own terrorised age.
