Now streaming on Netflix and reignited by the blockbuster film \u003ci\u003ePeaky Blinders: The Immortal Man\u003c\/i\u003e starring Cillian Murphy, the Shelby saga has never had a bigger audience — and this \u003ci\u003eSunday Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller reveals the true story behind it. Social historian Professor Carl Chinn, MBE, PhD, digs past the razor-sharp legend to expose the true history of Britain's most notorious backstreet gangsters: the real Billy Kimber, Darby Sabini, and Alfie Solomon, and the racecourse wars that made and broke them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChinn's family lived this history: his own great-grandfather was a real peaky blinder, and his grandfather ran an illegal Birmingham bookmaking operation like the one that built the Shelby fortune. Drawing on decades of original research, rare photographs, and interviews with gangsters' descendants, he reveals how the actual \"sloggers\" and razor gangs of Victorian and Edwardian Birmingham gave way to a citywide criminal network more brutal, and more human, than any TV or film script.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEssential for every Netflix Peaky Blinders fan who wants the facts behind Cillian Murphy's Tommy Shelby, this gripping social history brings Britain's forgotten underworld roaring back to life.","brand":"Skyhorse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49030948094207,"sku":"9781510789869","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781510789869","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
