Focusing on the experiences of women in the eighteenth-century Metropolitan area, this book explores their roles as both victims and perpetrators of crime, as well as their involvement in the criminal justice system. Utilizing a mix of primary and secondary sources, it remains accessible to both general readers and academics, avoiding complex jargon. The eight manageable chapters cover a wide range of crimes while examining the urban environment's significant impact on women's lives, influencing their patterns of offending and victimization.
