This book chronicles the development of criminal law in America,
from the beginning of the constitutional era (1789) through the
rise of the New Deal order (1939). Elizabeth Dale discusses the
changes in criminal law during that period, tracing shifts in
policing, law, the courts and punishment. She also analyzes the
role that popular justice - lynch mobs, vigilance committees,
law-and-order societies and community shunning - played in the
development of America's criminal justice system. This book
explores the relation between changes in America's criminal justice
system and its constitutional order.
