Show Notes

This week, join Katie as she runs headfirst into what was the history of England's oldest running crime syndicate! This group of girl gangsters were highly skilled hoisters, the Forty Elephants ruled London's streets in the 19th & 20th centuries, providing lower class women to escape poverty and gain independence. Where breaking the law is a feminist act and glamour and true crime intertwined.

Welcome to the tale of the Forty Elephants.
