John Long, UK, 1974. First Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Very Good Condition/No Dust Jacket. "In Leonard Gribble's latest collection of true-crime dramas the emphasis is placed on the many and varied patterns of guilt by killers who felt that their actions were compulsive. The central characters in such vivid human dramas afford many sharp comparisons, ranging from a family man who strangled young girls after he had drunk several glasses of beer to a political assassin with an hysterical sense of destiny, from a woman who slew to protect her husband to another who destroyed hers. The men were convicted, the women freed. There is guilt occasioned by a terrible fantasy of a dairy farmer who became a murder machine and guilt that derived from a doctor's great compassion for the suffering; the guilt of the self-deceived and the guilt of the failures whose one success is finding a target for blame. The cases span the civilised world and cover a century and a half, and the majority of them, when heard in the courts, made legal history, sometimes with an impact on the quality of justice dispensed today.? Book - in Very Good black boards with gilt lettering - light marking to the front board and light bumping to the extreme ends of the spine. Contents, possible new front paste down and free front end paper otherwise clean, bright and tightly bound. Dust Jacket - Good Plus - some wear to the extreme top of the spine, repaired to verso, and extreme top corners, light wear to the extreme bottom of the spine, light marking and light crease to the front flap, sunning to the red lettering to the spine. .
