520    "The life and death of a 19th-century circus legend. On 
       November 28, 1911 a retired showman died violently at his 
       home in North London. Known to the world as Lord George 
       Sanger, he was once the biggest name in show business, and
       was venerated as a national institution. The death of 
       Britain's wealthiest showman read like a popular crime 
       thriller: a merciless killer; a famous victim; sensational
       media headlines; a desperate manhunt laced with police 
       incompetencies and a dramatic denouement few could have 
       anticipated. But for over a century, questions have 
       persisted about the murder. Weaving in the story of 
       George's rise to fame and the history of Britain's 
       entertainment industry, The Killing of Lord George uses 
       previously unpublished archive material to reconstruct the
       events leading up to the death and reveal the true story 
       behind the brutal crime that shocked Edwardian England." -
