Description:Revolutionary. Conspirator. Jail-breaker. Fugitive. Duelist. Radical. And Killer. This is the true story of one of nineteenth-century London's most notorious murderers, immortalised on the barricades of Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables.It is 8 December, 1854. And our hero and villain – Emmanuel Barthélemy – is visiting a man at 73 Warren Street, in the heart of radical London, for the very last time.It is a dank, freezing-cold night, and Barthélemy has plenty on his mind. In his pocket is a ticket for travel to the continent: his plan, to assassinate the Emperor of the French. But half an hour later two innocent men would be dead.The newspapers of Victorian England were soon in a frenzy: Who was this exotically named foreigner, come to its shores from the terrifying revolutions of Paris to brutally slay two upstanding British subjects?The Murderer of Warren Street shines a light into a dark underworld of conspiracy, insurrection and fatal idealism. Following in Barthélemy’s footsteps, Oxford historian Marc Mulholland leads us from the clamour of the French capital to the icy rooftops of a Parisian jail and on to the fireside of Karl Marx, a misty duelling ground and the dangling noose of London's Newgate prison as he unravels the mystery of this illusive man.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
