On the 8th August 1963 a gang of 15 men stopped a mail train in Buckinghamshire and proceeded to steal sacks of money worth £2.6 million. It was the biggest heist ever carried out in the UK and frontpage news around the world. The mastermind behind this most audacious crime of the twentieth century was Bruce Reynolds. Perhaps the last of the 'gentlemen villains'; Reynolds epitomised that particular breed of sharply dressed, post-war criminals who mixed with royalty and movie stars, and never carried a gun. They thrived on adventure and glamour, and the Great Train Robbery was their last ride. From his childhood and early forays into crime, to planning the robbery and his life on the run, and finally his capture, prison years and growing old with the gang - this is a true crime classic. Widely regarded as a one of the finest memoirs of a life of crime, Autobiography of a Thief is essential listening for anyone interested in true crime. Narrated by his son, Nick Reynolds, who grew up on the run with his father.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Autobiography of a Thief, and Other Histories: The Wandering Heir The readers of "It is Never too Late to Mend" may remember that in chap. xxii. the chaplain set the thief to write his life honestly. He was not to whitewash, and then gild himself, nor yet to vent one long self-deceiving howl of general, and therefore sham, penitence; but he was to be, with God's help, his own historian and sober critic. Accordingly Thomas Robinson wrote this autobiography in - Jail; and my readers may have noticed that at first I intended to print it with the novel. It cost me a struggle to resign this intention; for it was the central gem of my little coronet. But the novel, without the autobiography, was five ordinary volumes by printers' calculation, and a story within a story is a frightful flaw in art. Moreover, I was attacking settled, long-standing prejudices. Prejudice is a giant, against whom Truth and Humanity need to be defended with great spirit, and, in some desperate cases, with a tiger-like ferocity: "A dur ane dur aiguillon." But there must be some judgment too; and, take my word for it, there always has been some judgment used wherever so hard a battle is won. I feared then to multiply paradoxes, and to draw once too often on the faith of the public, as well as on its good heart - I, who carried no personal weight with me. But I think my readers are now ripe for this strange but true story, and I dedicate it in particular to such as will deign to accept this clue to my method in writing: - I feign probabilities; I record improbabilities. The former are conjectures, the latter truths: mixed they make a thing not so true as Gospel nor so false as History; viz., Fiction. When I startle you most, think twice before you disbelieve me. What able deceiver aims at shocking credulity ? Distrust rather my oily probabilities. They should be true too if I could make them; but I can't. They are guesses. You have seen Thomas Robinson, alias Hie, alias Ille, alias Iste, tinted in water-colours by me; now see him painted in oils by himself, and retouched by Mr. Eden.
