Description: An original book which exposes the phenomenon of false allegations of lunacy in the Victorian period. Sane people were locked away in lunatic asylums because they were 'inconvenient people', and this features 12 separate stories of contested lunacy cases, ranging from the 1820s to the 1890s. From the author of "The Blackest Streets" and "The Italian Boy".
