Description
Howard Vincent's Police Code, 1889 is a comprehensive guide to the Metropolitan Police of the Victorian era. Compiled by Howard Vincent, Director of the CID, this code was first published in 1881 and remained an invaluable resource for Metropolitan Police officers over the next 50 years. The 1889 edition, written in 1888, provides detailed descriptions of over 900 incidents that might occur in the daily life of a police officer, covering topics such as baby farming, wandering lunatics, and illegal burials. This unique resource offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian law enforcement. A portion of the proceeds from this book's sales will be donated to the Metropolitan and City Police Orphanage, continuing a tradition that began with the original publication.
