Who Killed Sir Harry Oakes?
256pp. Hardback in cloth boards (rounding of head and heal of spine, slight foxing to page edges). Dust jacket showing minimal shelf wear. Clean, neat, bright and tight throughout. Oakes, a serial entrepreneur, gold miner and latterly a British Baronet, was murdered in 1943 under mysterious circumstances, and the subsequent trial ended with acquittal of the accused. No further legal proceedings have taken place on the matter, the cause of death and the details surrounding it have never been entirely determined, and the case has been the subject of several books and four films. 8vo
