Little Book of Crime & Punishment

We live in a society where every aspect of our everyday lives is governed by the law. We are subject to rules and regulations from where we can walk and where can't, how we are allowed to behave in public, what we are allowed to even say in public and when and how much we can consume alcohol.

No one is above the law; it affects the rich and poor, the famous, the homeless, the politicians and the monarchy. This book takes you on a remarkable journey of the last 2000 years of British history and how certain pivotal events of the past have had an irreversible influence on the development of our laws and penal system as we know it today.
