The county of East Lothian, previously known as Haddingtonshire, is an often-overlooked gem nestled in Scotland's central lowlands. Its boundaries include the Scottish Borders to the south, Edinburgh to the west and Midlothian to the south-west. The central administrative hub is the Royal Burgh of Haddington, which can trace its heritage back nine hundred years. East Lothian is an area of extreme beauty that incorporates sweeping coastlines, dramatic topography, ancient monuments and historic settlements. The county's culture has been influenced at times by farming, large country estates, heavy industry and fishing. This book attempts to tap into this diversity and provide a flavour of East Lothian's criminal past by highlights different cases over several centuries. Some of the crimes are relatively well known, while others have been consigned to history. Such topics as witchcraft, mental illness, suicide, poisoning, misogyny, highway robbery, patricide and old-fashioned greed are visited.
