Fred Rolfe was the 'King of the Norfolk Poachers.' From the time when, as a child, he went to prison and the tread-mill for snaring a rabbit, he lived "agin the law." Rolfe began poaching in boyhood and, despite trying other jobs, including gamekeeping, continued his illegal career with increasing relish. He wrote I Walked by Night in old age, recording the lives of many tough, fascinating characters struggling to survive in an era of rural hardship. . Nº de ref. del artículo: 61957
