Reviews

An insightful and original account of probation, which provides a sensitive analysis of the comprehensive support provided towards families in need. Drawing on a rich range of new primary sources, this monograph offers important insights for historians of crime, the family, welfare, and of twentieth-century Britain. * Dr Charlotte Wildman, Senior Lecturer in Modern British History, University of Manchester, UK *
