Focusing on a single county at a time when the population grew from
24,000 to 246,000, the authors combine statistical analysis of
documentary sources, contemporary newspaper accounts, and
exploration in criminal case files to give a detailed
reconstruction of the operations of the county's entire criminal
justice system. By tracing the process from arrest to trial,
sentencing, and punishment, this study will have a profound effect
on our perception of American criminal justice.
Originally published in 1981.
