History's 100 Most Evil Despots & Dictators is a study in depravity. It delves into the darkest recesses of the minds of the most vile men and women ever to seize power. With provocative insights into their shameful deeds, committed under a threadbare cloak of spurious legality, Tyrants confronts history's monsters head on. From the gruesome tale of the real-life Dracula, Vlad Tepes, a man who ate his meals surrounded by his impaled victims, to the gory deeds of latter-day cannibal, Idi Amin, Tyrants is a compelling portrait that recounts the strange and grisly stories behind the world's most infamous autocrats. Nigel Cawthorne has written, contributed to and edited more than sixty books, including Turning the Decisive Battles of the Second World War; A War Lost and Won ; and A History of Blood and Thunder on the High Seas . His work has also appeared in over a hundred and fifty newspapers and magazines including The Sun and the Financial Times . He lives in London.
