Beschreibung:
Laura Quigley is a full-time writer who lives in Plymouth. In 2010, Amnesty International held a public reading of her play, The Advocate, directed by a member of the RSC and based on material subsequently published by The History Press as The Devil Comes to Dartmoor.
Part of a brand new series in a vivid pulp style, this book introduces a grim and gruesome Plymouth history, from the early Roman era to World War II. Plymouth has one of the darkest and most dreadful histories on record. Beginning with the discovery of the bones of cave men and rushing through French attacks, outbreaks of leprosy and the plague, civil war sieges and deadly Spanish ships, disasters, demolitions, and the enormous death tolls of the Plymouth blitz, this book will change the way you see the city forever.
