Borderline Crime : Fugitive Criminals and the Challenge of the Border, 1819-1914 /
Borderline Crime examines how law reacted to the challenge of the border in British North America and post-Confederation Canada. Miller also reveals how the law remained confused, amorphous, and often ineffectual at confronting the threat of the border to the rule of law.
