Ficher [?] with the regards of his frnd. & srvt. Francis Lieber." "The mere absence of crime, therefore, is neither a proof of a state of morality--for it may originate from very inauspicious causes--nor is the increase of crime of itself a proof of increased degeneracy." An early attempt at criminology and reform, and an early work from the important immigrant German-American legal and political scholar Lieber, who had earlier assisted Alexis de Tocqueville and Gustave de Beaumont in collecting data on American prison system and published a translation of their work in 1833. This work includes a glance at the effects of the growth of the American popular press on the perception of crime rates. American Imprints 32605.
