“These crimes involving women and their sexual relationships with men have been shrouded in secrecy which has not only created a false perception of their incidence but has disguised their significance in the processes of social change which have occurred over the last century. Allen redresses the balance by providing both a detailed study of criminal acts involving women since 1880 and a feminist analysis of their social and political significance.” (from publisher’s blurb)
