Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book unfolds during the late 17th century within the intimidating and criminal-ridden streets of London. The tale revolves around David Watson, a goldsmith's apprentice tormented by the maltreatment he endures at the hands of his overbearing fellow apprentice, Andrew Bevan. When his master declines to intervene, David's anger escalates into a murderous plot. The author paints a rich picture of the socio-economic conditions prevalent during that time, with poverty and inequality providing breeding grounds for both despair and crime. Through David's experience as an immigrant driven to desperate measures, this book explores the raw and often violent realities of life in this period of great social and economic change. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
