          <ptr target="ukred-1320">Henry Mayhew holds meeting with a group of the lowest class of male juvenile thieves and vagabonds; during the meeting they tell him what they have read/ read regularly and Mayhew records this:

""Respecting their education, according to the popular meaning of the term, 63 of the 150 were able to read and write, and they were principally thieves. Fifty of this number said they had read "Jack Sheppard" and the lines of Dick Turpin, Claude du Val, and all the other popular thieves" novels, as well as the Newgate Calendar and Lives of Robbers and Pirates. Those who could not read themselves, said they"d had "Jack Sheppard" read to them at the lodging houses. Numbers avowed that they had been induced to resort to an abandoned course of life from reading the lives of notorious thieves and novels about highway robbers.""</ptr>
