Opis

In the century between 1850 and 1950 Bradford witnessed extraordinary growth and changes. Its wealth was based on the textile industry, and the city became known as the 'wool capital of the world'. It was a city of migrants, many from Ireland, and despite the efforts of philanthropic industrialists such as Titus Salt, wealth and poverty often lived close to each other. The city was a breeding ground for crime and Bradford Borough Police Force was formed in the 1840s, dealing with both the 'high crimes' of murder, large-scale robberies and frauds and 'low-level' crimes such as petty theft, vagrancy and loitering. Delving into original sources, court reports and newspaper archives, the authors also look at the effects of illegal gambling before the 1960 Betting & Gaming Act and the involvement of young people and their punishments.

This collection of true-life crime stories from the mid-nineteenth century the mid-twentieth century gives a vivid insight into life in Bradford in the past. This book will fascinate anyone with an interest in the history of crime as well as those who want to know more about the history of Bradford.
