The Great Train Robbery

The Great Train Robbery was the 20th century's most breath-taking crime. This fast-paced history uses trial records from The National Archives to separate myth from reality, telling the story from the viewpoints of those involved - robbers, associates, witnesses and police, as well as the train drivers who suffered a terrifying ordeal. It reveals how a well-laid plan was undone by an anonymous tip-off, as well as mistakes like fingerprint evidence, and describes the major investigation that went worldwide when Biggs, Wilson and Edwards escaped. The story concludes with a look at the big question, who were the masterminds?
