In 1907, Alice Mitchell was arrested for the murder of five-month-old Ethel Booth. During the inquest and subsequent trial, the general public was horrified to learn that at least 37 infants had died in Mitchell''s care in the previous six years. It became clear that she had been running a ''baby farm'', making a profit out of caring for the children of single mothers and other ''unfortunate women''. This book retraces this infamous ''baby farm'' tragedy and a trial which gripped the nation and led to legislative changes to protect children''s welfare.
