The Burglar Caught by a Skeleton – And Other Singular Tales from the Victorian Press, by Jeremy Clay, was published last month. It’s a wonderful collection of Victorian stories taken from newspaper archives in the British Library, all carefully selected and compiled into one book for your amusement!

Head over the Daily Mail website where you’ll find extracts taken from the book, from the lady who was tickled into insanity by her husband, to the boy who mistook a crocodile egg for a chicken egg!
