They were an elite group of renegade Fleet Street crime reporters covering the most notorious British crime between the mid-1930s and the mid-1960s. It was an era in which murder dominated the front and inside pages of the newspapers the golden age of tabloid crime. Members of the Murder Gang knew one another well. They drank together in the same Fleet Street pubs, but they were also ruthlessly competitive in pursuit of the latest scoop. It was said that when the Daily Express covered a big murder story they would send four cars: one containing their reporters, the other three to block the road at crime scenes to stop other rivals getting through. As a matter of course, Murder Gang members listened in to police radios, held clandestine meetings with killers on the run, made huge payments to murderers and their families and jammed potatoes into their rivals exhaust pipes so their cars wouldnt start. These were just the tools of the trade; it was a far cry from modern reporting. Here, Neil Root delves into their world, examining some of the biggest crime stories of the era and the men who wrote them. In turns fascinating, shocking and comical, this tale of true crime, media and social history will have you turning the pages as if they were those newspapers of old.

"El hombre eterno" es una obra seminal de G.K. Chesterton que invita a una profunda reflexión sobre la naturaleza humana, la historia y la espiritualidad. Publicado en 1925, el libro se presenta como una critica filosofica y teologica que explora las verdades universales del hombre a traves de diversos prismas historicos y culturales. Chesterton emplea un estilo vivaz y provocador, utilizando la ironia y el humor como herramientas para abordar cuestiones complejas, lo que le confiere al texto un caracter accesible. En su contexto literario, este trabajo se alza como un puente entre la critica religiosa y las corrientes existencialistas que se estaban gestando en su tiempo. G.K. Chesterton, un influyente escritor y pensador britanico, es conocido por su defensa del cristianismo, el optimismo y su critica a las ideologias modernas. Su vasta produccion literaria abarca ensayos, novelas y poesia, y refleja su formacion en la filosofia y su cercania a la Iglesia Catolica, lo cual se plasma en "El hombre eterno". La obra se origina en su deseo de contrarrestar la deshumanizacion de la modernidad y reafirmar los valores eternos del ser humano, viajando a traves de las narrativas historicas que modelan nuestra comprension de lo divino y lo humano. Recomiendo "El hombre eterno" a todo aquel que busque un estudio profundo y accesible sobre la condicion humana. La obra es tanto una defensa del valor de la tradicion como una llamada a la reflexion critica sobre la identidad y el proposito del ser humano en el mundo contemporaneo. Chesterton logra combinar erudicion y prosa agil, ofreciendo a los lectores una experiencia intelectual enriquecedora que perdura mucho despues de la ultima pagina.
