Unhappy Child, troubled adolescent, dissatisfied wife, a woman at
odds with convention. This was Elizabeth Fry, known to her family
and friends as Betsy. in 1816, at the age of 36, when she had been
a minister of the Society of Friends for five years, Betsy walked
alone into the hell of Newgate Gaol. The transformation she wrought
among it wretched female inhabitants propelled her onto the stage
of world history. In the following years she transformed her
generation's perception of offenders, and helped create a
professional prison service. She was also a catalyst in the long
struggle that eventually saw women achieving recognition in the
world beyond family and home.
