Since newspapers began it has been found that crime stories sell
copies. People can be fascinated, horrified or simply entertained
by the scandals and wrong-doings of their fellows. This book
gathers together a selection of stories which span the period 1801
to 1900. With a few digressions, they relate to the people and
places of Linlithgowshire, the administrative area of the time
which roughly corresponds to today's West Lothian. As well as the
human interest in the people, and the crimes which they may, or may
not, have committed, these stories offer a window into everyday
life in a period when Linlithgowshire, along with the rest of
Britain, was being transformed in many ways.
