About this product
Product Information
What was life like for the Victorian bobby? Gaynor Haliday became fascinated with the history of the early police forces when researching the life of her great, great grandfather; a well-regarded, long-suffering Victorian police constable in Bradford. Although a citation claimed his style of policing was merely to cuff the offender round the ear and send him home, press reports of the time painted a much grimmer picture of life on the beat in the Victorian streets. Handwritten Watch Committee minutes, historical newspapers and police records combine to reveal an account of how and why the various police forces were set up; the recruitment, training and expectations of the men, the issues and crimes they had to deal with, and the hostility they encountered from the people whose peace they were trying to keep. AUTHOR: After many years in business development, Gaynor Haliday is pursuing a second career in writing, working for various clients to create website content, blogs and features. Combining her passion for family and social history she has written various articles about her ancestors for several magazines. In researching this book Gaynor discovered how the brave souls trying to uphold Victorian law, with only a truncheon for defence and a stick to summon help, became the pioneers of modern policing. 32 b/w illustrations

I had an issue with the clay in my kit being dried out, which is something they couldn't have known about before me opening the box. I sent them a message and they replied quickly and kindly with a resolution, replacing my kit for me. Overall the kit was fantastic value and arrived brand new, in perfect condition bar the clay.
