Focusing on the stormy period from 1900 to 1939--a time that witnessed the Tonypandy riots, "Black Friday," and the general strike--Jane Morgan examines the role of the police in labor disputes in England and Wales. After briefly surveying these riots and strikes, she discusses the increase in Home Office influence over the provincial police until 1918; the position of police in the anti-strike apparatus of government from 1918 to 1922; the use of the armed services during the general strike; and the decline in police accountability towards local authorities.

Filling a serious gap between the literature on victimization and general social policy on children, Child Victims explores the range and extent of crimes committed against children and assesses their impact. For the first time, testimony of over two hundred children gives clear voice to their experiences, views, and needs. Morgan and Zedner examine how children attain the status of victims in the criminal justice system. They scrutinize each stage of the legal process that the child encounters, while contrasting the specialist response of the support services to the experience of the child going through a system designed for adults. The work concludes with a number of recommendations for future policy.

"Handsome? I Should Say he is NOT! His hair is a mess. He has a nose like a bird and a tyrannical jaw. His eyes are full of calculations.. Nor had Alice encouraged him. Yet somehow this infuriating, mysterious man had managed to turn her life upside-down. He dressed as absurdly as the proprietor of a parrot show or as elegantly as a Count. He disappeared on strange missions, leered at her, ordered her about. He was intolerable! And yet, though she refused his advances, he insisted on loving her. And now she found herself living as a "lady" in a magnificent London house, mistress of a staff of servants, waiting for a letter from Napoleon himself. A letter which Louis said would confirm that she was not Alice at all-not an opera-dancer, not a hat-maker-but the lost duchesse deViaur! Taken from back cover.
