Customer Reviews

Excellent part of an excellent series

I purchased Crime and Society in England,1750-1900, for research purposes for a historical novel I am writing and found it to be well-researched, engagingly written and extensive in the range of underworld behaviors that it covered. I have read other volumes in the Themes in British Social History series that this book is a part of and would certainly seek out other books from the series.
