Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Near Fine. First Edition. Stiff unmarked book, in glossy dust jacket; 10.0 X 6.9 X 0.9 inches; 328 pages; King John's Castle, Limerick, survives today as an impressive Anglo-Norman fortress in a commanding position along the eastern edge of the river Shannon. In the early months of 1642, when the Munster army of the Irish rebellion was admitted to Limerick, the Protestant and Anglo-Irish citizenry fled to the king's castle for protection, and were immediately besieged. To breach the masonry the besiegers used miners to make tunnels for the placing of timber props, ready for firing, underneath the foundations. The castle's defenders reacted by opening countermines to intercept the encroaching mines, hoping to save the walls from ruin. Substantial evidence for this 'military mining,' unusually, has survived to yield their secrets to today's archaeologists and military historians, providing a fascinating record of the exceptional events of the siege. Kenneth Wiggins brings together detailed documentary sources and unique archaeological discoveries in an expert assessment of the siege, embracing the drama central to the story while highlighting technology and strategies characteristic of 'underground' siege warfare'.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The murders were real. The monster was manufactured.In the sweltering late summer of 1894, a lonely storefront on Philadelphia's Callowhill Street marked the beginning of the end for one of the most infamous figures in American history. What started as a routine insurance investigation soon unraveled into a nightmare spanning multiple states and cities-from Chicago to Toronto-exposing a cold, calculating scheme of deception, bigamy, and murder.For over a century, the legend of H. H. Holmes has been shrouded in myth and exaggeration. Popular culture built a gothic caricature of a 'White City Devil' operating an impossible factory of death during the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. But behind the sensationalized newspaper headlines and modern inventions lies a far more unsettling true story-a documentary account of a smooth-talking swindler who manipulated systems, betrayed trust, and treated human lives as disposable commodities.Drawing on primary trial transcripts, contemporary police reports, insurance archives, and rigorous historical documentation, The Murder Castle Chronicles strips away a hundred years of fiction to deliver the full documented account of Herman Webster Mudgett, the man who became H. H. Holmes.Inside this documentary work, you will discover: - The Reality Behind the 'Castle': A grounded architectural and historical examination of the infamous 63rd Street building in Chicago, separating physical reality from yellow journalism myths.- The Pitezel Conspiracy: The forensic breakdown of the 1894 Philadelphia insurance fraud that led to Holmes's downfall, including the tragic search for the missing Pitezel children across North America.- Meticulous Forensic Investigation: Follow Detective Frank Geyer's relentless cross-country pursuit as he uncovers the evidence that brought Holmes to trial.- A Human-Centered Narrative: Restoring dignity and legibility to the true victims whose real lives and stories were long overshadowed by sensationalized storytelling.Thoroughly researched, objective, and deeply compelling, The Murder Castle Chronicles is an essential read for true crime enthusiasts, American history buffs, and anyone seeking the unvarnished truth behind America's first documented serial killer.Perfect for fans of: - The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson- H. H. Holmes: The True History of the White City Devil by Adam Selzer- The Indifferent Stars Above by Daniel James Brown- Killers of the Flower Moon by David GrannAbout the author: Michael I. Bryce is an investigative historian and expert storyteller of true crime, specializing in geopolitical conflicts, intelligence history, and organized crime.Scroll up and click 'Buy Now' to begin the complete story of America's first media monster - and the myth that buried the truth.…
