James Townsend Saward, Criminal Barrister
Described as a 'real-life' Professor Moriarty, James Townsend Saward, a respectable barrister of the Inner Temple, was unmasked in 1857 as the criminal mastermind known in the underworld of Victorian London as Jim the Penman. He was sentenced to transportation for life. For thirty years Saward led a double life as the head of a cheque forgery ring, a fence of stolen goods and as a planner of robberies. James Townsend Saward, Criminal Barrister: The True Story of Jim the Penman relates his life of crime as a notorious cheque forger and his involvement in other crimes, including one of the largest bank robberies of the 1840s and the great train robbery of 1855. The book also examines Saward's influence on Victorian literature, from Dickens's Great Expectations to penny dreadfuls and the popular play Jim the Penman. Saward's family and his connections to Victorian and Edwardian theatre are also discussed.

No Hope for Heaven, No Fear of Hell
Two family names have come to be associated with the violence that plagued Colorado County, Texas, for decades after the end of the Civil War: the Townsends and the Staffords. Both prominent families amassed wealth and achieved status, but it was their resolve to hold on to both, by whatever means necessary, including extra-legal means, that sparked the feud. Elected office was one of the paths to success, but more important was control of the sheriff’s office, which gave one a decided advantage should the threat of gun violence arise. No Hope for Heaven, No Fear of Hell concentrates on those individual acts of private justice associated with the Stafford and Townsend families. It began with an 1871 shootout in Columbus, followed by the deaths of the Stafford brothers in 1890. The second phase blossomed after 1898 with the assassination of Larkin Hope, and concluded in 1911 with the violent deaths of Marion Hope, Jim Townsend, and Will Clements, all in the space of one month.
