SHORTLISTED FOR THE HWA NON-FICTION CROWN
Diamond thief, guerrilla fighter, spy, decorated hero, bohemian rogue, and lover of several notorious women – all describe Major Harry Larkyns. Yet he has long been dismissed as merely a liar and a cheat, famous only for being shot dead in 1874 by the unnerving photographer Eadweard Muybridge. But has history properly understood either the killer or his victim? Part biography, part crime investigation, THE SCOUNDREL HARRY LARKYNS uncovers some extraordinary truths, and is historical detective work at its finest.
