This hilarious book stands and delivers the terrible truth about the gentleman of the road.

Did you know that highwaymen used to be "as common as crows?" So where did they all come from? And what happened to them?  What did they eat? Where did they live, and what happened to them if they were caught? If you've ever fancied life as a highwayman, read this book. You'll probably change your mind, armed with new knowledge of the nasty characters who terrorized innocents stupid enough to travel at night down dark and empty tracks, decked out in their finest jewels.
