About this book
Coiners, forgers, highwaymen, pirates, rioters and traitors fill Camden Pelham's Chronicles of Crime, a set of memoirs and anecdotes about offenders against British law from the earliest period to 1841. This second volume, printed in London in 1891, begins with an alphabetical list of names, each with the offence alleged and a page number. Entries include Jeremiah Brandreth for treason, Henry Fauntleroy for forgery, the Birmingham riots of 1839 and the Chartist riots of 1839 and 1840. Fifty-two engravings by Phiz illustrate the set.
