Description
In 1812 John Bellingham made his way to the Palace of Westminster. In the lobby leading to the House of Commons, he shot the Prime Minister, Spencer Perceval. There was no mystery about the killer's identity, but why did he do it? This lively narrative does full justice to this extraordinary tale of neglect and obsession.
