Who was the real Reg Kray? Who was the man lost beneath the layers of attitude and opinion, exaggeration and distortion? Why was he destined to spend so much of his life behind bars? His second wife Roberta writes about the Reg she knew, how he became such a vilified figure and what he thought about his past and his strange fame. Drawing on official documents, Reg's correspondence and their own conversations over the years, Roberta Kray sheds light on Reg's personality, his conflict with his brother Ron and his first tragic marriage. She also details the development of her own marriage from her first meeting with Reg in 1996 to his death in October 2000. This book offers a portrait of the real man behind the myth.

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Reg Kray. A Man Apart. Phone number written to inside cover. Very slight shelf wear to edge of D/J. Reg Kray was Britain's most famous prisoner, a villain to some and an anti-hero to many. But who was the real Reg Kray? Who was the man behind the layers of attitude and opinion, exaggeration and distortion? Why was he destined to spend so much of his life behind bars? In this book his widow Roberta writes frankly about the man she knew so well. Drawing on previously unseen documents, including letters and prison medical and officers' reports, as well as her own conversations with him over the years, she describes the problems he faced and overcame as well as the reactions of the authorities to one of the longest-serving prisoners in the country. Roberta sheds new light on Reg's personality, his conflict with Ron, his first marraige to Frances, and his friendships with other inmates. She also details the devolpment of her own marriage from her first meeting with Reg in 1996 to his death in October 2000, revealing the inside story for the first time. In the end she uncovers the real Reg - not an angel, but not a devil either. She describes a man with human failings and human virtues who fought to overcome the harsh physical realities and psychological strains of prison, who won in the end by finding a purpose to his life, by choosing hope over despair.
