THE THIEVES' OPERA, or THE REMARKABLE LIVES AND DEATHS OF JONATHAN WILD, THIEF-TAKER, AND JACK SHEPPARD, HOUSE-BREAKER, tells the fascinating story of two men as famous in their time as Dick Turpin - and of the criminal underwold of early 18th-century London which they inhabited. An elegantly written, entertaining popular social history, illustrated with period engravings by Hogarth and others.
