Product Description

Report of the Trials for Rioting at Ely and Littleport 1816 UK The report of the trials at Ely and Littleport came into my possession on the death of a relative, Mr Iliffe Norfolk of Wilburton near Ely UK. the book was written in the year of the riots, 1816 and describes in detail the fate of those who took the law into their own hands. As we near the end of the Twentieth century, the justice metered out to the defendants seemed extremely harsh and I felt the book was worthy of re-printing because of its local historic interest. Philip Warren, Wilburton 1997.
