Dive into the gritty world of early 20th century London courts with Thomas Holmes, a police court missionary who served for two decades. This book, first published in 1900, explores the true stories Holmes encountered in his mission to help convicted criminals reform. As an early form of a probation officer, often sponsored by temperance unions, Holmes observed and navigated the complex web of crime causes, chief among them being alcoholism (then known as dipsomania), poverty, and domestic violence. His first-hand experiences, observations, and beliefs about crime provide a fascinating insight into the social issues of his time, many of which still resonate today. Join us as we unravel the human stories behind crime in this compelling narrative. - Summary by Verla Viera
