Description
This book throws new light on white-collar crime, criminals and criminality in late nineteenth and early twentieth-century Britain.
It does so by considering the life of one man, Jesse Varley (1869–1929), who embezzled more than £80,000 from Wolverhampton Corporation, and for a decade and more enjoyed an ostentatiously extravagant lifestyle.
He was discovered, and despite serving a period of penal servitude, he turned again to white-collar crime (this time in Sheffield).
Sentenced again to penal servitude, he died a few years later in Liverpool in what were said to be 'very poor circumstances'.
