Chinn, who grew up among the same streets his ancestors walked, brings insider authority to the history behind the legend.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPeaky Blinders: The Legacy traces how the gang's fearsome reputation passed down through generations, reshaped by folklore, and reborn as a global cultural phenomenon through the BBC drama, looking at how Birmingham itself has responded to newfound fame.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPeaky Blinders: The Aftermath completes the trilogy by charting what happened to organised crime in Birmingham as the century progressed, following the networks and rivalries that emerged after the era depicted on screen.
