Book Description
Excerpt from Tewksbury: A Short History This sketch was delivered last winter as a lecture under the title "Our Town," in the course of the Village Improvement Association of Tewksbury. It was written with no thought of publication. The request for it for that purpose brought home to the writer its incompleteness. He has consented to its appearance to gratify many who were unable to hear it; in hope, also, that it may incite some one to give Tewksbury a more perfect history. In the study of history to-day, no feature is more marked than the attention paid to the process of the making of England and the United States as revealed in the early life of the towns. Those of New England have an origin and life peculiarly their own. The smallest of them is a true representative of the class.

Book Description
This book surveys the history, current status, and critical issues regarding the various mechanisms designed to control sex offenders. It shows that the social problem of sex offending is not apparently resolvable by any of the means currently employed. A large array of procedures are used in the attempt to control the difficult population of sex offenders, including: imprisonment, institutional and community treatment, community monitoring by probation and parole, electronic monitoring, registration as a sex offender, community notification of an offender’s status, strict limits on behavioral movement in the community, and residence restrictions. However, these constraints on behavior are almost completely the result of public outrage regarding sensational sex crimes, overreaction of media coverage that produce inaccurate statements of potential community risk, and the efforts of the legal profession and politicians to quell this anger and foreboding by enacting legislation that supposedly confronts the risk. This book demonstrates that we have constructed a massive edifice of community control that is socially and politically driven and which has largely failed to contain sex crime.
