Andrew Kuchling<p>SCOTLAND YARD: A HISTORY OF THE LONDON POLICE FORCE'S MOST INFAMOUS MURDER CASES, by Simon Read, is an entertaining history of the London police agency, covering a lot of ground with very clear historical exposition. It begins with the Ratcliffe Highway Murders in 1811, before London had a police force at all, and began to push the government toward creating such an agency, which was founded in 1829.</p><p>Each chapter then describes a case or two and the ensuing investigation, some successful and some not. It turns out I've already read entire books about a bunch of these cases, in books such as THE ITALIAN BOY by Sarah Wise and THE SUSPICIONS OF MR WHICHER by Kate Summerscale. Luckily I read those books over a decade ago so revisiting the investigations here wasn't a problem.</p><p>Crimes rose and fell in frequency over time. The 19th century had a lot of murders committed as part of a theft or con job, though the Ripper murders were a startling break. Trains gave more mobility to criminals, who could attack a passenger or escape by train to a different city. Boy, there sure were a lot of trunk murders in the 1920s and 1930s! </p><p>In the late 19th and 20th centuries the Metropolitan Police began adopted new scientific techniques: fingerprinting, chemical analysis to identify bloodstains and poisons, forensic medicine, and ballistic analysis.</p><p>Overall I thought this was an enjoyable historical-crime book that was factual while staying pretty light.</p><p><a href="https://dmv.community/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://dmv.community/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://dmv.community/tags/TrueCrime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TrueCrime</span></a> <a href="https://dmv.community/tags/ScotlandYard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScotlandYard</span></a></p>

Eine Klassenkameraden hatte das. Damals, in den 80ern hinterm Eisernen Vorhang war das für mich etwas wie aus einer anderen Welt. Farben, Materialien, die Spielidee - in jeder Beziehung faszinierend anders und besser als alle <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Brettspiele" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brettspiele</span></a> die bis dahin kannte.</p><p>Heißeste: War vor 30 Jahren mal Die Siedler von <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Catan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Catan</span></a> - hielt sehr lange an, war DAS Familienspiel zu allen Feiertagen. Heute ertrage ich es nicht mehr. Aktuell: <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ArcheNova" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ArcheNova</span></a>. Ich muss immer einen guten Moment anpassen wenn ich meinem Mann neue Spiele beibringen will. Bei AN hat er während der Regelerklärung nur mit den Augen gerollt. Ich wusste aber dass das Thema ankommen wird (wir haben quasi ein Dauerabo für die Wilhelma). Es hat dann schnell klick gebracht und er gewinnt fast immer. Mit AN verbringen wir die meiste Zeit. <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Wasserwelten" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wasserwelten</span></a> und die vielen neuen Maps gaben nochmal einen extra Boost. </p><p>Neueste: <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Revive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Revive</span></a>. Hab über ein Jahr gebraucht um mit einem Freund die 5 Partien der Tutorialkampagne zu spielen (rückblickend: überflüssig). Danach erst ist so richtig Begeisterung aufgekommen. Finde ich aber zu zweit nicht so wahnsinnig attraktiv. Empfehle 3 oder 4 Spieler. Erstes Spiel übrigens bei dem ich Geld für ein <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Insert" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Insert</span></a> ausgegeben habe.</p>
