Cotswold Crimes,
By DAVE REYNOLDS "jazzdave" (Cheltenham, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gloucestershire Murders (Paperback)
A good list of bygone solved and unsolved crimes from the Cotswolds-well written with maps and original photos complimenting each crime. We were particularly interested in the "Great British Torso Murder" of 1938, and this article pointed us towards other books and information containing greater detail.

OK but nothing new,
By Nigel Barnett "Nigel" (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gloucestershire Murders (Paperback)
Having read Stratmann's excellent book 'Chloroform' I bought this one on Amazon, but it was a disappointment. The book is not based on original research but regurgitates the work of others. The Edmond Edmunds story from Newent was nicely retold, but the Campden Wonder chapter was dreadful - nothing new or interesting, just pot-boiling some old scraps.
