Local author Paul Adams takes the reader on an enlightening and entertaining journey through Luton's past, delving beneath the surface in this unique approach to the town's history, blending dark deeds and strange tales with long-forgotten facts and amusing stories, revealing the hidden secrets that even most local people don't know. |
