Britain's Most Prolific Burglar: Flannelfoot and the Scotland Yard Men Who Hunted Him (Beardsley Martyn R.)(Pevná vazba)
EAN: 9781399054836
Harry Edward Vickers, aka Flannelfoot, was possibly Britain's most successful ever burglar. Not financially - he stole cash and low-value items (even, bizarrely, false teeth!). The success was in his hundreds of burglaries spread over many years without being caught. The lives of career criminals are invariably dotted with prison sentences, but thanks to his caution and cunning, Flannelfoot operated night after night, year after year with an impunity which embarrassed the police.
In the twenties and thirties, Londoners were deserting the overcrowded capital for the burgeoning suburbs of 'Metroland'. Flannelfoot was equally attracted to these areas, and one of his hallmarks was to steal a bicycle at the scene of his last break-in of the night and cycle to the nearest tube station.
Burglars and burglaries are never glamorous, but one reason why the Flannelfoot saga
