The wackier it is, the more they believe it: an exploration of the world of hoaxes, hoaxers and victims

Nick Yapp

Nick Yapp trained as a lawyer, before opting for the more adversarial life of a teacher. Here, he immediately discovered that his bluffing skills were inadequate and, after twenty-seven years, he became a writer and broadcaster.

He has written for radio and TV, and is the author of more than 30 books. These include three Bluffer's Guides and Great Hoaxes of the World. He lives in South-East London - which is accessible by taxi late at night, no matter what cab-drivers say.
