- Prince of Tricksters is a 170,000 word monograph underpinned by archival research in five countries over ten years. In examining Netley Lucas, the book makes significant contributions across discrete historiographical and theoretical fields. These include histories of crime and society, journalism and publishing, mass politics and monarchy, and the significance of the 1920s and 1930s in the formation of British modernities. Intervening in interdisciplinary debates around historical practice, the book makes further contributions around life-writing, subjectivities, and the status of historical knowledge and authenticity. The project combines archival depth and breadth, transnational scope, and intellectual ambition.
