Description

The Autobiography of a Thief by Bruce Reynolds is a gripping account of one of Britain's most infamous crimes. On 8 August 1963, a group of men, led by Reynolds, robbed a train in Buckinghamshire, making off with £2.6 million - a haul equivalent to £26 million today. Reynolds' story is one of audacity and extraordinary crime, but also of the consequences that followed. The book has been widely acclaimed since its first publication in 1995 and has become a seminal work in the true crime genre. This reissued edition brings the story up to date with new photographs and a final chapter that explores Reynolds' life after his release from prison. A fascinating and thought-provoking read, this autobiography offers a unique insight into the world of organised crime and the men who commit it.
