Omtale
Published in 1862, this book is a comprehensive guide to crime and punishment in nineteenth-century London. Henry Mayhew (1812–87), a journalist and social reformer, argues for prison reform by demonstrating that all of London's penal institutions were ineffective in reforming criminals and did not adequately provide for the inmates.
