The city of London has housed more prisons than any other European city. Among these, Newgate was the largest, most notorious, and worst. Built in the twelfth century, Newgate became a legendary place, inspiring more poems, plays, and novels than any other building in London. It was a place of cruelty and wretchedness, at various times holding infamous figures such as Dick Turpin, Titus Oates, Daniel Defoe, Jack Sheppard, and Casanova.

Since prisons were privately run, prisoners had to pay for their time spent incarcerated. The accommodations varied greatly, from a private cell with a cleaning woman and a visiting prostitute to simply lying on the floor with no cover. Tragically, only a quarter of the prisoners survived until their execution day, and those who died inside had to remain in Newgate as rotting corpses until their relatives could afford to pay for the body's release.

Stephen Halliday's captivating narrative delves into the origins of Newgate, the infamous criminals it housed, the punishments meted out, and its subsequent rebuilding and reform. This book offers a compelling slice of London's social and criminal history.
