Heroes, Villains and Victims of Lincoln

Author: Stephen Wade

Heroes, Villains and Victims of Lincoln

Heroes, Villains & Victims is a collection of stories about some of the people who have helped to make Lincoln a distinctly interesting city, or who have acquired a black reputation for extreme crimes.

There are stories here of the great, the glorious or the tragic. Some Lincoln people have created empires, such as Joseph Ruston; others have been notable villains, like Frederick Nodder. But whatever the tale being told, all this adds up to a fascinating reminder of the human stories in this great and historically important city.

The author has lived in the county for many years, and has delved into the chronicles and archives of Lincoln to find these stories, ranging from Medieval times to recent years.
