The development of law and order during Victorian times included the establishment of the British police and prison systems which we have today. This book, part of the "Finding Out About" series, is designed for use in both class and individual project work for the 10-14 year old. It provides a wealth of original source material, and teaches the reader how to find, understand and use such evidence. Questions and ideas for follow-up work are included, as well as practical advice on finding more source material.
