- Wirral Tragic Tales
- £12.99GBP
Fresh from his research into the dark side of Wirral's history, in his
first book 'Criminal Wirral', Daniel K. Longman has plunged back into a
brand new selection of terrible and tragic tales. Rather than focusing
on crime, he looks at accidents and disasters from the mid-nineteenth
century to the early twentieth century - in the countryside and in the
towns, and in Birkenhead and Ellesmere Port's chemical factories. From
the sad to the spectacular, from overdoses and omnibus crashes to the
most incredible unintentional firework display this book ranges widely
to bring together a collection of stories to fascinate and enthrall all
those who know the Wirral peninsula.
