Beschreibung
The Armstrongs were the number one "Riding" family on the Anglo/Scots Border during the 16th century. They were the most destructive of the Border reivers. and can arguably be called Britain's worst ever family. The book follows two narratives. The first delves into the history of the Armstrongs; origins, where they lived, their society and how they survived across a violent frontier. The second narrative is a gazetteer of family biographies - A who's who of raiders and marauders based on court cases and criminal trials. Tales of ransom, murder, arson, blackmail and theft are explored, drawing out the family's story during this unique period.
