In Women and Crime in Early Modern Holland, Manon Van der Heydenconvincingly tackles some persistent assumptions about the criminal behavior of early modern women. [...] Smoothly combining legal history, gender history and social and economic history, the author discusses the daily experiences, worries - such as poverty - and aspirations of early modern female criminals. [...] The wealth of information combined with constant comparing of early modern crimes with their current definitions ensures that this book is of value for both professionals and the broader public.
