Kent Murder & Mayhem
This true crime history reveals the dark side of England’s bucolic southern countryside with centuries of havoc along the English Channel. With its bountiful apple and cherry orchards, Kent is known as “The Garden of England.” But in Kent Murder and Mayhem, readers are taken on a tour of local crime and conspiracy through the ages, meeting villains of all sorts along the way. Cut-throats and poisoners, murderous lovers, desperate wives and husbands, violent thieves—almost every type of killer is represented here. Roy Ingleton's fascinating book recalls many grisly events involving sad or unsavory characters whose conduct throws a revealing light on the society of their day. In these pages you’ll meet a murderous fourteen-year-old boy, a mother who did away with her son, and a husband who killed his wife and children. Other true tales of wickedness include the poisoning of an old lady, the murder of two wives by drowning, and the case of the last man to be hanged in public at Maidstone Prison. It’s a fascinating journey through the Garden of England…and what’s buried beneath.

Prisons of Poverty
In this title, the author examines how penal policies emanating from the United States have spread thoughout the world. The author argues that the policies have their roots in a network of Reagan-era conservative think tanks, which used them as weapons in their crusade to dismantle the welfare state and, in effect, criminalise poverty.

Kent VCs

Here Roy Ingleton honors 50 of those who have been awarded the nation's highest decoration for valor in the line of duty.The book is divided into sections according to the conflicts in which the awards were earned, each beginning with a concise historical overview to set the context for these acts of heroism. From the Crimea (thus some of the earliest VCs ever awarded), through to the Second World War, the entries encompass many of the most famous episodes in British military history and are drawn from all three services. Meet heroes such as Sergeant Major Wooden of ...
Guns and Violence
Behind the passionate debate over gun control and armed crime lurk assumptions about the link between guns and violence. Indeed, the belief that more guns in private hands means higher rates of armed crime underlies most modern gun control legislation. But are these assumptions valid? Investigating the complex and controversial issue of the real relationship between guns and violence, Joyce Lee Malcolm presents an incisive, thoroughly researched historical study of England, whose strict gun laws and low rates of violent crime are often cited as proof that gun control works. To place the private ownership of guns in context, Malcolm offers a wide-ranging examination of English society from th...
