Sir Ludovic Kennedy was a British journalist, television personality, humanist and author. Following a brief naval career, he devoted his life to what he referred to as his 'lifelong obsession with miscarriages of justice' and he fought this cause tirelessly, until he died in 2009. Richard Ingrams first met Ludovic Kennedy in 1963 and the pair quickly bonded. Ingrams interweaves this biography with detailed analysis of the cases to which Ludo dedicated his life, vividly recapturing the spirit of his friend and colleague.
